The Buddhist teachings and universal law, equivalent to Sanskrit 'dharma,' representing the path to enlightenment and cosmic order.
From Pali 'dhamma' (literally 'law' or 'duty'), derived from Sanskrit 'dharma.' This is the Pali spelling used in Theravada Buddhist texts and remains central to Buddhist philosophy.
Dhamma is Buddhism's answer to universal rules—unlike commandments from above, it's the natural law of cause and effect that you discover yourself through meditation!
