☸Dhamma = Dharma

The Buddha's Teaching

4👑☸ → UPED → ☸Dhamma (⤴)

☸Dhamma, dhamma

1a. ☸Dhamma = The Buddha's Teaching that leads to nirvana.
1b. Dhamma = Natural laws of the universe, like impermanence, death, illness, etc.
1c. many more... 🔬details

2a. dhamma = mental object (e.g. idea, thought, raw sensory consciousness) cognizable by the mind (6aya) 💭 manasā dhammaṃ viññāya.
2b. dhamma = thing. A broad term that can mean anything.
2c. many more... 🔬details

dharma (sanskrit) = dhamma (pāḷi). Since a correct modern English definition of 'dharma' is commonly understood, lucid24.org uses dhamma/dharma, ☸Dhamma/Dharma interchangeably.

The oral tradition works together holistically with Sati, dhamma-vicaya, memorization. It requires Dhamma=specialized Teaching, not "phenomena"

☸Dhamma "is beautiful" pericope

This passage occurs about 30 times in the suttas. A shorter version, about half as long, occurs in around 30 other suttas.

See Dhamma-vicaya and SN 46.3 for how listening to Dhamma precedes sati-sambojjhanga memorizing and recollecting that Dhamma.
The oral tradition works together holistically with Sati, dhamma-vicaya, memorization. It requires Dhamma=specialized Teaching, not "phenomena"
"Dhamma is beautiful" passage is a good example of the oral tradition learning method.
AN 4.191 is good example of prototype oral tradition, hearing, memorizing, reciting

SN 46.3 (7sb☀️)

This is one of the most important models in the EBT. You should have it memorized and know it by heart forwards and backwards. This is the canonical definition of "bhāvana", meditation, every method of meditation that generates samadhi and jhanas, uses this model. It appears as part of many 16 APS suttas, it often appears without the explicit "bojjhanga" suffix attached, but a partial causal sequence is unmistakable.

☸Dhamma-vitakka 💭

thoughts related to Dhamma, occurs in first-jhāna. In AN 8.30 they're explicitly called "Dhamma vitakka", but in other suttas they can be referred to as Dhamma, as samadhi nimittas, as anus-sati/recollections, as perceptions/sañña.
Especially as 8aam->samma sankappo(vitakka),

☸Dharma, dharma

(1.1) {☸Dharma:} (in Buddhism) the nature of reality regarded as a universal truth taught by the Buddha; the teaching of Buddhism.

(1.2) {dharma:} An aspect of truth or reality. ‘all dharmas are forms of emptiness’

Origin: Sanskrit, literally ‘decree or custom’.
