The Cessation of Suffering and Buddhist Axiology

Daniel Breyer
Illinois State University
This article examines Buddhist axiology. In section 1, the article argues against the dominant interpretations of what the ultimate good is in Buddhist ethics. In section 2, the article argues for a novel interpretation of Buddhist value theory. This is the Nirodha View, which maintains that for at least the Pāli Buddhist tradition, the cessation of suffering is the sole intrinsic good. In section 3, the article responds to objections and briefly suggests that even non-Buddhists should take the Nirodha View seriously.
