Dear Chet

I talked to my father, he said Unalom can be flipped, it is up to the artist to make it, but it is still be Unalom.

And somehow in modern time Unalom is misinterpreted/misused to flame on top of Buddha head. It is a �flame of invisible light� sat upon the head of the Buddha or Buddhist holy man indicating divine intelligence.

The flame on top of rectangular line is symbolized Buddha also.

Have fun
Anita
