dharmakaya [Skt.] - chö ku [Tib.], ‘the Absolute or Truth Body’. Upon the attainment of buddhahood, enlightenment manifests at three levels, which are known as the three bodies of the Buddha: the Absolute or Truth Body, or dharmakaya; the Enjoyment Body, or sambhogakaya; and the Emanation Body, or nirmanakaya. It is the eighth of the eight topics of the Abhisamayalankara. See Resultant Dharmakaya.
