I've recently noticed this picture. (http://www.nzz.ch/dossiers/religionen/index.html)

The picture illustrates a series of articles with the title "What's a Good Religion?". There are five symbols in the picture, all of which I assume to be religious symbols. However, I can only recognize the three of them that are obvious to me (i.e. Christianity, Islam and Judaism). Hopefully somebody more knowledgeable than me can tell me to which religions (if any) the other two symbols belong.

The top left corner is a Hindu symbol, I'm not sure what the one in the middle is.

Possibly Buddhism.
