Buddhism, Religion, Dharma

Meaning and Description

This is a Falun symbol in the shape of a rudder, which is divided into eight equal parts. Patterns displayed on different platforms have different colors, including black, white and yellow. Except emojidex platform, which simply depicts a rudder, all other platforms depict a purple or purplish red background box under the pattern. In addition, OpenMoji and Microsoft platform also added a black edge around the background frame.

Falun is a representative symbol of Buddhism, which means the way to the soul and symbolizes the authority and solemnity of Buddhism. Therefore, the emoji is generally used to refer specifically to Buddhism's "Zhuanfalun", which means spreading Buddhism in the world and breaking bad things.
