【vira^ga
】
'fading away', detachment; absence of lust, dispassionateness. Appears frequently together with nirodha, 'cessation' (1) as a name for Nibba^na, (2) in the contemplations (a) forming the 4th tetrad in the exercises in mindfulness of breathing (s. a^na^pa^nasati 14), (b) of the 18 principal insights (No. 5); s. vipassana^.
According to Com., it may mean (1) the momentary destruction of phenomena, or (2) the ultimate 'fading away', i.e. Nibba^na. In the aforementioned two contemplations, it means the understanding of both, and the path attained by such understanding.
