Manji / Wan (Buddhist âSwastikaâ). The swastika used in Buddhist art and scripture is known as a manji (Japanese; whirlwind), and represents Dharma, universal harmony, and the balance of opposites. In China, it is called wan. It is derived from the Hindu religious swastika, but it is not identical in meaning.
Where does the name Japan come from? The name of the country in Japanese is Nihon or Nippon, written æ¥æ¬ in Chinese characters. The characters mean the origin of the sun. This comes from the position of Japan to the east of China. However, neither Nihon nor Nippon sounds much like Japan, so the origin of the word Japan is mysterious. Marco Polo never visited Japan, only China, but in a book he mentions the island of Chipangu.
