Sagarmatha Zone
Sagarmāthā () was one of the fourteen zones of Nepal until the restructuring of zones into provinces. "Sagarmāthā" is a Nepali word derived from सगर् (sagar) meaning "sky" and माथा (māthā) meaning "head".
Theravada
Dhammas are not permanent, discrete and separate entities, they are always in dependently conditioned relationships with other dhammas and always changing, arising and vanishing. It is thus only for the sake of description that they are said to have their "own nature" ("sabhāva"). Alternatively, Theravāda commentaries sometimes equate the two terms, such as the Visuddhimagga which states that ‘dhamma means sabhava’. According to Peter Harvey, the Theravāda view of a dhamma's "sabhāva" is that it refers to an individualizing characteristic ("salakkhana") that "is not something inherent in a dhamma as a separate ultimate reality, but arise due to the supporting conditions both of other dhammas and previous occurrences of that dhamma". Noa Ronkin argues that in Theravāda Abhidhamma, ""sabhava" is predominantly used for the sake of determining the dhammas’ individuality, not their existential status". Ronkin also adds:the concept of sabhava attests to the Theravadins’ interest in unveiling the nature of conscious experience: this, they presumed, could be carried out by enumerating the possible types of those events constituting one’s experience and by individuating them. To individuate the dhammas the Abhidhammikas had to provide a method for determining what any given dhammic instance of every possible event-type is and what makes it so, and for this purpose they used the concept of sabhava.Thus, while in Theravāda Abhidhamma, dhammas are the ultimate constituents of experience, they are not seen as substances, essences or independent particulars, since they are empty ("suñña") of a self ("attā") and conditioned. This is spelled out in the Patisambhidhamagga, which states that dhammas are empty of svabhava ("sabhavena suññam").
