[...] The jewel of the wheel is connected to the happiness resulting from the five objects of enjoyment; the Wheel of the Dharma is connected to the happiness of the Dharma. The jewel of the wheel is a basis for fetters; the Wheel of the Dharma is not a basis for fetters. The jewel of the wheel has a limited domain (mitagocara); the Wheel of the Dharma has an unlimited domain. [...]
