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. :)
the buddha symbol means that buddha will help you and will save everyone from aliens but only if everybody in the world has a buddha symbol tattooed on their forehead. if the symbol has a hat on then it is considered unlucky and that if you touch it you will have supernatural powers but will only use them for evil. DO NOT TOUCH THE HAT-WEARING BUDDHA!!!

There's really a lot about the Buddha and the symbol. I can't really explain everything to you, but I can give you a link to it.
Actually it is not a Buddhist sign but it is from Hinduism. That's where the Buddhists got it from.
Buddha didn't teach really much. People that saw him and heard his stories and what he believes wrote down the things they heard and people started taking his stories and beliefs as a way of life. The buddha was just a symbol of the religion.
it represents the light of Buddha's teaching continues to shine on the world
One common symbol for enlightenment is the lotus flower, which represents purity and spiritual awakening. The Buddha is also often used as a symbol of enlightenment, reflecting the attainment of wisdom and compassion.
