==Buddhism== Upādāna is the Sanskrit and Pāli word for "clinging", "attachment" or "grasping", although the literal meaning is "fuel". Upādāna and taṇhā (Skt. tṛṣṇā) are seen as the two primary causes of dukkha ("suffering", unease, "standing unstable"). The cessation of clinging is nirvana, the coming to rest of the grasping mind.
