nirvana

Even a few extra inches of room would get me closer to the sartorial nirvana I was chasing.

And then another filmmaker with a completely different vision and a different voice, but that loves that flavor, does their version — that’s nirvana.

“For some movements within Buddhism, the rainbow symbolizes the highest state a human being can reach before entering final enlightenment, or nirvana,” said the visiting Rev. Elizabeth Murphy.

“This isn’t exactly the high-tech nirvana that the futurists of the 1960s were hoping for,” she said.

“I would argue that if you didn’t know anything else about everything that was going on, and somebody told you about the recent economic numbers, we’d be celebrating it as nirvana.”
