- Term
At the end of an arhat’s or a buddha’s life, the aggregates of that life cease and no further aggregates arise. At that point there is only the unconditioned element (dhātu) of nirvāṇa in which there is no remainder of the aggregates.
When nirvāṇa is attained with awakening, whether at the level of an arhat or a buddha, all suffering, afflicted mental states (kleśa), and causal processes (karman) that lead to rebirth and suffering have ceased, but due to previously accumulated karma, the aggregates of that life remain and must still exhaust themselves. It is only at the end of life that these cease, and the arhat or the buddha is said to attain, or metaphorically to “enter,” the nirvāṇa without remainder. See also the entries for nirvāṇa and parinirvāṇa.
