Buddhist Dictionary

by late Ven. Nyanalokita Thera:

vavatthāna: 'determining', defining. In its application to insight meditation, this term occurred first in Paṭisambhidāmagga (I, p. 53); but in a verbal form, as a past participle, already in MN 111: tyassa dhammā anupada-vavatthitā honti, “these things (the mental factors) were determined by him (i.e. Sāriputta) successively” (see Abhidhamma Studies, p. 54). In Visuddhi Magga XX, 130, it is said: 'The determining of the truth of suffering is effected with the determining of mind-and-body in the purification of view (see visuddhi III). The determining of the truth of origination is effected with the discerning of conditions in the purification by transcending doubt (see visuddhi IV). The determining of the truth of the path is effected by emphasis on the right path in the purification by knowledge and vision of what is path and not-path (see visuddhi V). Thus the determining of the 3 truths (suffering, origin, path) has been first effected by means of mundane (see lokiya) knowledge only.” - See sammasana, visuddhi.

For the determining of the 4 physical elements, see dhātuvavatthāna.
