Is it because it is just easy to come up with it independently on different continents (it’s basic geometry after all) or

    Humans have been playing with geometric patterns basically forever.

    The Sri Yantra and Slavic ornamentation could easily be just cultures in contact when you look at the distance between Eastern Europe and Central Asia and South Asia so there’s not really a big conspiracy to be had there. What’s holy in one region is just an aesthetic vibe in another until the 21st century hits then it’s called cultural appropriation.

    (There’s some Slavic ornamentation that has swastika-esque designs from before the 1930s to 1940s.)

    But as others have said, people have always messed around with geometry.
