Guest guest Posted February 20, 2002 Report Share Posted February 20, 2002 Namaste Eve The word Nirvana is an interesting one and what buddhism has done with it is even more interesting. The word NIRVANA has absolutly nothing to do with a place or a state although all the buddhists I have met are busy tring to attain it or to get there, such is the mind ! Translated properly it means EXTINGUISHED! That has to be one of the most difficult places or states to attain or to get to as there would be no-one left over to be there, When a candle is snuffed out its flame is extinguished, it goes no where! but it is no longer.
