කොහෙද යකෝ මෙහෙම තියෙන්නෙ. උඹ අපේ ආගම විකුර්ති කරන්න හදනවා නේද?![]()
A commonly used metaphor for nirvana is that of a flame which goes out due to lack of fuel:
Just as an oil-lamp burns because of oil and wick, but when the oil and wick are exhausted, and no others are supplied, it goes out through lack of fuel (anaharo nibbayati), so the [enlightened] monk … knows that after the break-up of his body, when further life is exhausted, all feelings which are rejoiced in here will become cool.[103]
