Parinirvana

([P] parinibbāna) In Buddhism, it is the nirvanic state after the death of an enlightened being such as a Buddha. It is spoken of as “nirvāna without remains,” and should be distinguished from paranirvāna found in theosophical writings which refer to the state during cosmic rest or mahā-pralaya.
