dharmātmagraha (T. chos kyi bdag 'dzin ཆོས་ཀྱི་བདག་འཛིན་; C. fawozhi) is translated as "grasping to the self of phenomena," "conception of the self with regard to phenomena," etc.[1] It is one of two types of self-grasping identified in the Mahayana; the other being "grasping to the self of person" (pudgalātmagraha).
The antidote to the grasping to the self of phenomena (dharmātmagraha) is the realization of "selflessness of phenomena" (dharmanairātmya).
