What best describes nirvana as a goal of buddhists?

Answer 1

Nirvana is a state of being that is free from suffering. That doesn't mean that you become a stone, impervious to all emotions. it means that you live life fully awake and not tormented by your desires and perceptions.

Answer 2

• Since all language comes from Becoming and nirvana is Being, it is impossible to use language to describe nirvana. One way that is helpful, though, is to think of nirvana as alert, awake consciousness without thought. Usually, there is a constant stream of thought, and nirvana may be understood as freedom from having to think (conceptualize).

• I practice Nichiren Buddhism and Nirvana is the state of rapture. In Nichiren Buddhism the ultimate goal would be enlightenment.
