In Buddhism, dhamma vicaya (Pali; Sanskrit: धर्मविचय-) has been variously translated as the "analysis of qualities,"[1] "discrimination of dhammas,"[2][note 1] "discrimination of states,"[3] "investigation of doctrine,"[4][note 2] and "searching the Truth."[5] The meaning is ambivalent; it implies the investigation of the Buddhist teachings (dhamma), but also the application of discernment to body-mind phenomena in order to apply right effort, giving way to entry into the first jhana.
