Dhamma-dhātu: mental-object-element. The Law doctrine that is the reality behind being and non being. It is inter penetrative and all inclusive, just as the rotation of the earth holds both night and day. Dharmadhatu -- dharma essence or dharma realm -- is understood differently in Theravada and Mahayana Buddhism. The ultimate truth of phenomena.
