Definition
In Mahayana Buddhism, dharmadhatu means "realm of phenomena" or "realm of eternal truth". It is referred to by several analogous terms from Mahayana Buddhist philosophy, such as Tathata (Reality "as-it-is"), emptiness, dependent co-arising and eternal Buddha. It is the "deepest nature, or essence".Шаблон:Sfn
Dharmadhatu is the purified mind in its natural state, free of obscurations. It is the essence-quality or primal nature of mind, the fundamental ground of consciousness of the trikaya, which is accessed via the mindstream.Шаблон:Citation needed
When the buddha-nature has been realised, dharmadhatu is also referred to as the Dharmakāya, the Body of Dharma Truth.
It is associated with supreme cosmic buddha Vairocana.
