Arya

Arya is one of the four paths which, in the religion of the Buddhists, when entered upon, leads either immediately or more remotely to the attainment of nizwana, or cessation of existence. He who enters upon the Arya, or Aryahut, has overcome or destroyed all evil desires and the cleaving to existence. He is understood to know the thoughts of any one in any situation whatever.
