who liked to achieve enlighten goes in six path as below :

Also they reduce or make powerless - Great lust to five senses & great
angry or violence mind which help to born in human world. This is
called as Sakudragami, means one-returning to lust world.
- People are non-returning to lust world
called as Anagami and only born in five great heavens of pure lands. People got this states remove - accepting theory of soul, doubt about Buddhism, follow other religious customs & mere traditional practicings.
Also completely remove : great lust to five senses, great Angry & violence mind.
But they have stick to material & non-material worlds, proud in mind, swaying state of mind.
- Buddhist monks who get Arahart or Enlighten state, they are not rebirth & finished all bonds of rebirth cycle. As same as flame of oil lamp disappear, their consciousness also disappear. This is final goal of all Buddhist people. Nibbana, Nirvana, Enlighten & Freedom means this state. They finished all works in rebirth cycle & get rid from continually pains of deaths. As well as other paths eight noble path help to attain Arahart or enlighten state.
