Parinipphanna (adj.) [pari+nipphanna] predetermined Kvu 459 (v. l. ˚nibb!na), 626 (a˚); cp. Kvu trsl. 2616,

Parinibb!na
Parinibb!na (nt.) [pari+nibb!na] "complete Nibb!na" in two meanings: 1. complete extinction of
khandhalife; i. e. all possibility of such life & its rebirth, final release from (the misery of) rebirth and
transmigration, death (after the last life -- span of an Arahant). This is the so -- called "an -- up!di -- sesa
Parinibb!na," or "extinction with no rebirth -- substratum left." -- 2. release from cravings & attachment to
life, emancipation (in this life) with the assurance of final death; freedom of spirit, calm, perfect well --
being or peace of soul. This is the so -- called "sa -- up!disesa -- P.," or "extinction (of passion) with some
substratum left." -- The two kinds are distinguished by Bdhgh at DhA ii.163 as follows: "arahatta -- pattito
pa&&h!ya kilesa -- va&&assa khepitatt! sa -- up!di -- sesena, carima -- citta -- nirodhena khandhava&&assa
khepitatt! an -- up!di -- sesena c! ti dv"hi pi parinibb!nehi parinibbut!, an -- up!d!no viya pad"po
apa**attika -- bh!va' gat!." -- 1. D ii.72 sq. (the famous Mah! -- parinibb!na -- suttanta or "Book of the
Great Decease"); M iii.127, 128; A ii.79 (˚samaye); iii.409 (˚dhamma, contrasted with !p!yika nerayika,
-- 428 --
cp. DhA iv.42); Mhvs 7, 1 (˚mañcamhi nipanna); VvA 158; PvA 244. -- 2. D iii.55; A v.64; Sn 514 (˚gata+
viti**a -- kankho); Vv 5324 (˚gata+s"tibh(ta). This state of final emancipation (during life) has also
received the determination of anup!d! -- parinibb!na, i. e. emancipation without ground. for further
clinging (lit. without fuel), which corresponds to Bdhgh's term "kilesava&&assa khepitatt! sa -- up!di -- sesa
p." (see above); thus at M i.148; S iv.48; v.29; A i.44; v.65 (nicch!to nibbuto s"tibh(to etc).; A v.233=
253=Dh 89 (+kh"*!sava).
