| In [[Buddhist]] context, '''saṃvṛti''' or '''saṁvṛiti-satya''' (Sanskrit) refers to the conventional (''saṁvṛiti''), as opposed to absolute, truth or reality (''satya''). Knowledge is considered as split into three levels: The first being the ''illusory'' (called ''samvriti'', ''parikalpita'' or ''pratibhasika'' according to different schools of thought), considered false compared to the empirical (''samvriti'', ''paratantra'' or ''vyavaharika''), in turn trumped by the transcendental (''paramartha'' or ''paramarthika'').
