輪樘（下澤耕反字書云樘柱也亦作樘說文亦云柱也從木堂聲案輪樘即塔上持露盤之柱杆也十二因緣經云八人得起塔從如來下至輪王八露盤已上皆是佛塔自輪王已下安一露盤見之不得禮以非聖塔故）。

Spire-pole of the rings (輪樘: the lower character has the fanqie *zé* + *gēng* [zhēng]; character glossaries say, "A *chēng* is a pillar." It is also written as 樘. The *Shuowen* also says, "A pillar"; it is categorized under "wood" with *táng* phonetic. Note: The *lúnchēng* is the central pillar and rod on a stūpa that supports the dew-basins. The *Dvādaśāṅgapratītyasamutpāda-sūtra* says that eight kinds of persons may have stūpas erected for them; from the Tathāgata down to wheel-turning kings, those with eight dew-basins and above are all Buddha stūpas; for those below a wheel-turning king, a single dew-basin is installed, and seeing it, one must not prostrate, because it is not the stūpa of a sage).
