What happens after attaining Nirvana?

After attaining nirvana, the mind dissolves into emptiness, yet the enlightened one remains, moving among people out of compassion until the final dissolution into supreme emptiness.

— Osho
According to Osho, after nirvana the mind dissolves into emptiness, yet a subtlest trace of being and the living body remain. The enlightened one may still move among peopleBuddha, out of compassion—until death. With the body's dissolution comes mahanirvana: sovereign, supreme emptiness beyond perception. In Krishna, nirvana and mahanirvana coincide; in Buddha they are sequential.

Waking up ends the noisy mind, but the body keeps going; some enlightened ones keep helping kindly until death, when everything rests in total peace.
