Upādāna
Upādāna (Pāli, Skt.; lit., ‘that which fuels a process’ or ‘keeps it going’). Grasping, clinging, attachment; according to Buddhism the mark of human behaviour generally. There are four types: grasping after sense objects, speculative philosophies (diṭṭhi-vāda), rules and rituals (see SĪLABBATA-PARĀMĀSA), and theories of a soul (atta-vāda).
