Dharma has several connotations in South Asian religions, but in Buddhism it has two basic, interrelated meanings: dharma as 'teaching' as found in the expression Buddha Dharma, and dharma as 'reality-as-is' (abhigama-dharma).

This sense of dharma or reality-as-is is also called suchness (tathata) or thatness (tattva) in Buddhism.
