Nirodha
In Buddhism, nirodha, "cessation," "extinction," refers to the cessation or renouncing of craving and desire which arise with unguarded perception and cognition. It is the third of the Four Noble Truths, stating that dukkha ('suffering', the perpetual cycle of sense impressions, attraction and rejection, and action) ceases when craving and desire are renounced.
This is achieved through the cultivation of the Noble Eightfold Path, which includes the practices of right understanding, right intention, right speech, right action, right livelihood, right effort, right mindfulness, and right concentration. The attainment of nirodha leads to nibbana (Sanskrit: Nirvana), extinguishment, liberation from the bondage of the perpetual agitation of attraction, rejection, and action.
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.
In Patanjali's Yoga Sutras (I.2), nirodha (restraint) refers to the cessation of the changing states of the mind (citta-vrtti). To achieve this, in I.12, Patanjali describes two essential components: practice (abhyasa) and dispassion (vairagya). This aligns with the Bhagavad Gita (verse 6.35), where Krishna tells Arjuna that while the mind is fickle and difficult to control, it can be mastered through practice and dispassion.
