Around the globe it is used to represent Buddhism in the same way that a cross represents Christianity or a Star of David represents Judaism.It is also one of the Eight Auspicious Symbols of Buddhism.he Ashoka Chakra. Among the oldest existing examples of a dharma wheel are found on the pillars erected by the Ashoka the Great (304-232 BCE), an emperor who ruled much of what is now India, and beyond. Ashoka was a great patron of Buddhism and encouraged its spread, although he never forced it on his subjects.
In some Indian religions, a chakra (Sanskrit cakra, wheel) is thought to be an energy point or node in the subtle body. Chakras are believed to be part of the subtle body, not the physical body, and as such, are the meeting points of the subtle (non-physical) energy channels called nadi.Nadi are believed to be channels in the subtle body through which the life force (prana) (non-physical) or vital energy (non-physical) moves.ndian Yogic teachings assign to the seven major chakras specific qualities, such as color of influence (from the seven rays of spectrum light), elements (such as earth, air, water & ether), body sense (such as touch, taste, and smell), and relation to an endocrine gland.
