Anuttara-samyak-sambodhi means the supreme and perfect Enlightenment of a Buddha. Anuttara-Dharma-chakra means the Wheel of the unsurpassed Law. Anu ttara is also one of the ten honorable titles of a Buddha and in this context is rendered as "unexcelled worthy." This title signifies that a Buddha stands supreme among all living beings.
