涅槃(巴利語:निब्बान Nibbāna;梵語:निर्वाण Nirvāṇa),佛教術语,合文作𢌽,又譯為泥洹、涅槃那、涅盤那、泥盤那、暱縛男,意譯為熄灭、滅、滅度、寂滅、無為、解脫、自在、安樂、不生不滅等,新譯作般涅槃(巴利語:pari-nibbāna,梵語:pari-nirvāṇa),又译为般泥洹、波利暱縛男、入滅、入滅度、圓寂。佛教教義認為涅槃是將世間所有一切法的自體性都滅盡的狀態,所以涅槃中永遠沒有生命中的種種煩惱、痛苦,上座部佛教的見解是從此不再受後有,也就是不再有下一世的六道輪迴。這個術語最早源自於古印度婆羅門教,當時眾說紛紜。佛教認為外道無法實證何謂涅槃,在無佛教的時代只有佛和辟支佛可以親證涅槃。釋迦牟尼菩薩降生後,出家成佛轉法輪,教導弟子佛法,才開始有聲聞聖弟子四果阿羅漢實證涅槃。佛陀和阿罗汉捨壽後,會取證無餘涅槃界,進入不生不滅狀態,也称为涅槃,一般更常用般涅槃(意思是“進入涅槃滅度”,即“入滅”)表達,意思是肉身死亡後,进入不生不灭的涅槃状态。時至今日,當有佛教上師、沙門、比丘、比丘尼等修行者過世時,許多人會尊稱他們了。大乘見地是佛菩薩能在涅槃中同時度眾生,佛菩薩的涅槃叫“無住涅槃”。
