Answer:
The Dharma Wheel is not a symbol in the sense that the Christian Cross is a symbol which, apparently, Christians are willing to go to great lengths to defend. The eight spoked wheel is a mnenomic or aide memoire for the Eightfold Path, the central position of the Buddha and the unity of everything. and the encompassing nature of the rim the extended sangha of all sentient beings. Together with this is the feeling that wheels are used to "get you somewhere" in this case move you towards enlightenment
