'''Partless particle''' (Tib. ''dultren chamé''; [[Wyl.]] ''rdul phran cha med'') — the indivisible particle of matter asserted by the [[Vaibhashika]] and [[Sautrantika]] schools. ''See also'' [[indivisible moment of consciousness]].

==Refutation==
The partless particle is refuted by the [[Chittamatra]] school using the logic expressed in this famous verse from [[Vasubandhu]]'s ''[[Twenty Stanzas]]'':

:When six other particles are joined to it,
:The subtle particle will have six parts.
:If the six all simply converge together,
:Then even compounds will be infinitesimal.
