Nazi-acquired Buddha statue came from space

It sounds like a mash-up of Indiana Jones' plots, but German researchers say a heavy Buddha statue brought to Europe by the Nazis was carved from a meteorite that likely fell [to Earth] 10,000 years ago along the Siberia-Mongolia border.

  

This space Buddha, also known as "iron man" to the researchers, is of unknown age, though the best estimates date the statue to sometime between the eighth and 10th centuries.

   

The carving depicts a man, probably a Buddhist deva, perched with his legs tucked in, holding something in his left hand.

  

On his chest is a Buddhist swastika, a[n ancient worldwide spiritual] symbol of luck that was later co-opted by the Nazi party of Germany.

   

"One can speculate whether the swastika symbol on the statue was a potential motivation to displace the 'iron man' meteorite artifact to Germany," the researchers wrote online Sept. 14 in the journal Meteoritics & Planetary Science.
 
The iron man first came to Germany after a 1938-1939 Tibet expedition by zoologist and ethnology Ernst Schäfer, who was sent to the region by the Nazi party to find the roots of Aryan origin. More

Space is the place; it is where part of our roots are among the many humanoid species.

 

Why were Nazis interested in Buddhist paraphernalia?

"Hitler bad, Vandals good" (msnbc.com).

Inner-circle German "National Socialist" party leaders (referred to by the shorthand Nazis) like Goebbels, Himmler, and the Austrian Vril Society ladies headed by their oracle Maria Orsitch were fascinated by all things occult -- particularly as they related to "Aryans" and beings from space who contacted the party through Vril and other means. Whether these were well meaning entities from Aldebaran, the Nordic goddess (devi) Freyja, the northern quadrant sky/space King Vaisravana, (Vessavana), or sinister titans (asuras), it is hard to say. But Nazis tried to deify their mouthpiece Adolf Hitler (much as Rove was the architect for Bush), a skillful orator kept on drugs that produced delusions of grandeur, in the public eye. They did this by associating him with the myth of Aryan forbears, psychic Madame Blavatsky Buddhist/Theosophical lore, religious symbols (like the iron cross and swastika), vegetarianism, German pagan and Spiritism movement trappings. Modern people, weighed down by their counter-propaganda biases and assumptions, can't be bothered to assimilate the complicated-truth when a compelling-narrative is so much easier to swallow. Why did the Nazis go to Tibet? Why did they send delegations all over the world to inspect extraterrestrial artifacts and bases, particularly in Antarctica? Why did they build saucer-shaped craft and time-traveling bells (Die Glocke)? Why did they try to unite the world under one tyrant?
