v1.c6.s32.916
"The Buddhist doctrines mostly resemble those of the Jains, it is just possible that the former might have held the Svastika in the same light as the latter. In the Nasik inscription, no. 10, of Ushavadata, the symbol is placed immediately after the word 'Siddham' a juxtaposition which corroborates the above Jain interpretation. We find the Svastika either at the beginning or end or at both ends of an inscription and it might mean Svasti or Siddham." Mr. Y. S. Vavikar.
