The Wheel of life (skrt. bhavacakra) is a symbolic representation of the cycle of existence (skrt. samsara). It is found in any entrance of a tibetan monastery and explains the cause and result of our suffering. The meaning of this wheel can be described in short:
The images in the hub of the wheel represent the three poisons of ignorance, attachment and aversion.
The second layer represents karma or cause and result.
The third layer represents the six realms of samsara
The fourth layer represents the twelve links of dependent origination.
The fierce figure holding the wheel represents impermanence.
The moon above the wheel represents liberation from samsara or cyclic existence.
The Buddha pointing to the moon indicates that liberation is possible.
