world. While it had a multitude of meanings,

it represented the revolution of the stars, the
four seasons or the wheel of life. Others saw it
in terms of the union of man and woman or of
the beginning and the end. In the Hindu
language, the word itself means 'it is well'.

Aryan man, which was eternally anti-Jewish.
