Buddhism. In Theravada the ultimate goal is the cessation of the kleshas and the attainment of the sublime state of Nirvana, achieved by practicing the Noble Eightfold Path (also known as the Middle Way), thus escaping what is seen as a cycle of suffering and rebirth. Kleshas ([क्लेश, kleśa] किलेस kilesa; ཉ ན མ ངས nyon mongs), in Buddhism, are mental states that cloud the mind and manifest in unwholesome actions. In the contemporary Mahayana and Theravada Buddhist traditions, the three kleshas of ignorance, attachment, and aversion are identified as the root or source of all other kleshas.
