Grasping is clinging. A sutra says, "What is grasping, you ask. That which is desirous intention for something." Prince Yasomitra explains this to mean that grasping is what makes one's consciousness hold and cling to rebirth, greed etc. The Eighth Lord Mikyo Dorje explains that the afflictions are "grasping which grasps at rebirth." | |||
In the context of causes, "nyer len" is sometimes translated substantial or primary or perpetuating. While these translations are accurate in terms of the relationship of the ''nyer len gyi rgyu'' to the result, they miss the important point that this happens because of grasping. Hence it seems better to use the more literal translation. [[User:DKC|DKC]] | |||
