What is the wheel of Dharma
The Dharmačakra comes from the Dharma, which is the path to attaining enlightenment and attaining nirvana (the highest state one can attain). It also means the wheel of the Law. Although there are many variants of the Dharma wheel, they are usually depicted with eight spokes and are golden in color. In the center of the wheel are three shapes, usually a Yin Yang shape, a wheel or a circle.
The meaning of the Dharmačakra usually refers to a typical Dharma chariot with eight spokes representing the eightfold path and is the oldest, universal symbol of Buddhism. There are several ways to interpret the Dharma chariot, so this symbol has several meanings. There are three different parts that make up the Dharma chariot: the cane, the hub and the bow.
