Yes. Both “Dhammā loke piyarūpaṃ sātarūpaṃ, etthesā taṇhā uppajjamānā uppajjati, ettha nivisamānā nivisati” AND “Dhammasaññā loke piyarūpaṃ sātarūpaṃ, etthesā taṇhā uppajjamānā uppajjati, ettha nivisamānā nivisati” refer to Dhammā (and not the teachings).
- Even the same words can be used to refer to different concepts. In the above case, it happens because it would not rhyme well if the second verse is written as “Dhammāsaññā loke piyarūpaṃ sātarūpaṃ, etthesā taṇhā uppajjamānā uppajjati, ettha nivisamānā nivisati.“
- However, once we understand the relevant concepts, we should be able to determine which meaning to use. A good example is “Kāya” discussed in the current post “Kāya Can be Pañcupādānakkhandha or Physical Body.”
