Nirvana, ( Sanskrit: “becoming extinguished” or “blowing out”) Pali nibbana, in Indian religious thought, the supreme goal of certain meditation disciplines. Although it occurs in the literatures of a number of ancient Indian traditions, the Sanskrit term nirvana is most commonly associated with Buddhism, in which it is the oldest and most common designation for the goal of the Buddhist path. It is used to refer to the extinction of desire, hatred, and ignorance and, ultimately, of suffering and rebirth. Literally, it means “blowing out” or “becoming extinguished,” as when a flame is blown out or a fire burns out.
Reaching the state of Nirvana is a whole process where a person has to pass through different stages.The four stages of enlightenment in Buddhism, the four progressive stages culminating in full enlightenment as an Arahat. And each of these stages has a different story to tell. These four stages are :
1. Sotapanna, 2. Sakadagami, 3. Anagami, 4. Arahat.
