In Buddhism, nirodha, "cessation," "extinction," or "suppression,"[1] refers to the cessation or renouncing of craving and desire (Samudaya). It is the third of the Four Noble Truths, stating that dukkha ceases when craving and desire are renounced.
According to Thubten Chodron, Nirodha is the final disappearance of all bad experiences and their causes in such a way that they can no longer occur again.[2]
