Falun (symbol) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Falun (symbol)
The Falun (法輪) symbol pictured is used as an emblem by the Falun Gong spiritual group. The term translates literally as "law wheel." Other representations of the Falun (dharma wheel, or ''Dharmacakra'' in Sanskrit) are utilized in other Buddhist traditions. In Buddhism, the Dharmacakra represents the completeness of the doctrine. To "turn the wheel of dharma" (''Zhuan Falun'') means to preach the Buddhist doctrine, and is the title of Falun Gong's main text.〔Benjamin Penny, "Falun Gong, Buddhism, and Buddhist qigong". Asian Studies Review 29 (March 2009).〕 Despite the invocation of Buddhist language and symbols, the law wheel as understood in Falun Gong has distinct connotations, and is held to represent the universe.〔 It is conceptualized by an emblem consisting of one large and four small Swastika symbols, representing the Buddha, and four small Taiji (yin-yang) symbols of the Daoist tradition.〔George Bruseker, "Falun Gong: A Modern Chinese Folk Buddhist Movement in Crisis," 26 April 2000.〕〔Li Hongzhi, Zhuan Falun.〕 ==References==
