What religion is associated with Nirvana?
Nirvana is the ultimate "state" of extinguishing of all desires and cravings in Buddhism. But, Buddhism is more a philosophy of life than a religion. Buddhists do not believe in "God" and "soul/spirit". Nirvana is the absolute "truth" which is non-conceptual and therefore ineffable. " In contrast to all other monotheistic religions, the ultimate aim of an Buddhist monk or practising Buddhist is to break the infinite cycle of deaths and rebirths (SAMSARA), by attaining Nirvana or cessation of desire.

What is nirvana and who believes in it?
Nirvana is the goal of Buddhism. All teachings of Buddhism are meant to the attainment of Nirvana. It is a state of mind, an understanding.

We crave for some things, want to own things. If we dislike something, we hate those. And sometimes there is confusion. (Craving, Hatred and Delusion) Nirvana is when there is no attachments neither dislikes and no confusion. This is achieved through the eightfold path. Simply put by practicing to letting go, one can overcome Craving. By practicing loving kindness, one can overcome Hatred. And by meditation one can overcome delusion. These are further explained int the Eightfold path.

There is no salvation in a Christian sense in Buddhism, that is there no deity judging you to determine if you are good enough to enter heaven.

This path may require countless lifetimes to reach the goal of Nirvana.
