Dukkha means pain or suffering in Sanskrit. Buddhists consider suffering, or dukkha to be a result of our grasping or attachment to pleasure, and avoiding displeasure. Attachment and aversion are both considered to be the source of misery. Happiness itself is not considered to be dukkha, but the grasping attachment to pleasure is.
