Pratiik
From: http://anandamarga.pt/
The pratiik (symbol) is the visual representation of the ideology and way of life of Ananda Marga.
The triangle pointing up symbolizes action (energy) in the external world. The triangle pointing down symbolizes internal development or knowledge. The two triangles are in balance to indicate the balance we must aspire in life individually and collectively - a balance between action extroverse (worldly) and spiritual practice introversial.
The rising sun symbolizes the development of devotion, and subsequent progress along the spiritual path.
The swastika symbolizes perfection. Svastika is a Sanskrit word meaning "good life" (su
means "good" and Astika "exist in"). The swastika is a symbol of spiritual victory permanent.
Then seen as a whole pratiik means that the combination of action and knowledge will progress to perfection and achieve permanent victory.
