Abstract

Today’s life is very fast. Man is accumulating materialistic things to get pleasures but he does not get happiness and mental peace.

 In this competitive world stress is inevitable.  Stress arises because of unpleasant situation. Happiness is rare commodity now a days.

In such situation we realise importance of Buddhism. Teachings of Buddha are useful even today. Generally, man will get heaven after death but nirvāņa is a state which one experiences before death, here and now. Such person is known as arhata, liberated through alive.  Buddhism is not path of renunciation but lead an active life in the world.

Nirvāṇa means freedom from afflictions, mental imbalance, disturbance and worry. Man will experience mental peace.
