The dharmachakra or wheel of dharma is a symbol used in the Dharmic religions of Buddhism, Hinduism, and Jainism. It has a widespread use in Buddhism. In Hinduism, the symbol is particularly used in places that underwent religious transformation. The symbol also finds its usage in modern India. Not to be confused with the similar Chaos Undivided (symbol) which has eight arrow tips. For the identical-looking object, see ship's wheel.
