"...whose ideas influenced the development of theosophy.."

There is no source for this assertion?! Such a fatal accusation without any source or evidence (and without any further explanation within the main-text) has nothing to do with a serious encyclopaedia. Therefore I deleted it (no source, POV or own theory-development). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.16.224.39 (talk) 08:27, 6 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

"Burnouf claimed that swastika originated as a stylised depiction of a fire-altar seen from above"

"fire-altar" is hyperlinked here to the generci altar page, but that page doesn't seem to explain what a fire-altar is, nor how it relates to the Indo-Aryan people that Burnouf was talking about. Linking to some more specific page about the religious practice he could be referring to would be better. — Preceding unsigned comment added by StevenMichaelFlanagan (talk • contribs) 05:09, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
