Dharmadharmatāvibhāga

Distinguishing Phenomena from Their Ultimate Nature
Book •
The Dharmadharmatāvibhāga, traditionally attributed to Maitreya, is a compact Yogācāra manual distinguishing conventional phenomena from their ultimate nature and prescribing practices leading to non-conceptual wisdom.

It elucidates stages of insight and clarifies interpretive strategies for teachings on emptiness and dependent arising.

Commentaries, including those by Asaṅga and Vasubandhu, expanded its terse statements into practical guidance.

The work functions as both doctrinal clarification and a pragmatic path text within Yogācāra lineages.
