The **Nirvana Initiative** is the titular scheme orchestrated by Naixatloz in *AI: THE SOMNIUM FILES - nirvanA Initiative*.

## Trivia

* In Buddhism, **Nirvana** is referred to as a state of freedom from suffering and earthly bindings, breaking from the cycle of rebirth, which is achieved by extinguishing the three "fires" of Greed/Desire, Anger, and Delusion.
	+ This ties with Naix's idea of Moksha, named after hinduist state of soul being freed from all desires, to emancipate humanity from the simulation they supposedly live in.
