Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Buddhists seek to achieve enlightenment through meditation, spiritual learning, and practice. They believe in reincarnation and that life is impermanent and full of suffering and uncertainty; the way to find peace is through reaching nirvana, a joyful state beyond human suffering.

Detailed explanation-2: -Buddhism spread throughout much of India and China. Buddhists believe in a “rebirth” of the self. They also believe that the cycle of rebirth is complete once a person lives a proper life. At this point the person’s soul would enter nirvana.

Detailed explanation-3: -Nirvana (Sanskrit: , nirvāṇa; Pali: nibbāna) is “blowing out” or “quenching” of the activities of the worldly mind and its related suffering. Nirvana is the goal of the Buddhist path, and marks the soteriological release from worldly suffering and rebirths in saṃsāra.

Detailed explanation-4: -In Buddhism, nirvana is the highest state that someone can attain, a state of enlightenment, meaning a person’s individual desires and suffering go away. The origin of the word nirvana relates to religious enlightenment; it comes from the Sanskrit meaning “extinction, disappearance” of the individual to the universal.
