SWASTIK in Hinduism

As per mythology, Swastik is the form of Lord Ganesha. The left side of the Swastik is understood to be the place of Lord Ganesha. It also has four bindus (dots), which is said to be the place of gods like Gauri, prithvi, Kurma or Tortoise and other gods. This peace mantra is:

Swasti Na Indro Vridhshravaah Swasti Na Pusha Vishwadevaah
Swastinasta Raksho Arishtnemi Swasti No Brihaspatirdhatu

It is said that in this mantra, the four times used Swasti means asking for blessings four times from Lord Ganesha, Indra, Garud, Pusha and Brihaspati Devas. This mantra determines that Lord Ganesha resides only in those places, which has love, peace, happiness, good emotions, kindness and trust always. And when Lord Ganesha resides in such a place, it is blessed with forever happiness, good health, wealth, success and long life
