The symbol for Buddhism is a wheel. If you have an understanding of the Buddhist Dhamma, then this will make sense. If there is no such understanding, in a nutshell, the wheel is symbolic of the continuing existence in life, and relates back to the concept of impermanence and ongoing suffering in existence. Hope that helped. :)
