Himmler more than Hitler wanted to give the Nazi movement more of a religious tone to it. It was a desire to make Nazism a quasi religion. "Everything comes from the party everyone serves the party, there is nothing without the party." They wanted control of ever aspect of society, wanted to influence people and motivate people into religious fervor. They believed that the Aryans were the true for farthers of the Germanic race at that the swastika would be the "cross" of Nazism.

I heard he wanted to create a superior race. That would be the Aryans. so he used their symbol. I think he admired the Aryans.

The swastika represents a wheel in motion. Usually it is posed on a flat side. the Nazis poised it on a corner indicating that they were going to roll over the opposition.
In addition, it is a simple symbol that is instantly recognizable. What other symbols that are so easily recognizable? When selling a product or and idea, simple symbols are used to spread the product or idea.
