Quick google of the phrase "sound without form" brings up a Chinese philosopher called Han Wen-kung. This guy said: "of old there was but one faith; now there are three,"--meaning Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism. Might match the influences of Wheel of Time and that three thing might be the emblem (just going off of Wikipedia, here never actually read, or even heard of the books before today). And of course the dragon in a circle. Probs very wrong but who knows.
