actually in buddhist traditions, nirvana is said to be the 'highest happiness' - here's a quote i dug up from accesstoinsight (a pali canon reference site):

Quote:

Nibbana is described as the highest happiness, the supreme state of bliss.[7] Those who have attained Nibbana live in utter bliss, free from hatred and mental illness amongst those who are hateful and mentally ill.[8] Sukha in Paali denotes both happiness and pleasure. In English happiness denotes more a sense of mental ease while pleasure denotes physical well being. The Paali word sukha extends to both these aspects and it is certain (as will be shown below) that mental and physical bliss is experienced by one who has attained Nibbana.




more is available here: http://www.accesstoinsight.org/lib/authors/desilva/wheel407.html

this is also in reply to deCypher who said that buddhist texts denote nirvana as a neutral state :smile:

oh there's still suffering for other beings, and then the corresponding compassion for those beings. i thought you meant an enlightened person would still suffer themselves in order to have compassion :smile:
