arhat
An arhat, in Buddhism, refers to an individual who has achieved enlightenment and liberation from the cycle of birth and rebirth (samsara) through their own efforts, without the aid of a teacher. Arhat is a status attained as the result of individual effort and is considered the culminating point in Theravada Buddhism. The term essentially means "worthy one" or "perfected person". The arhat, having reached Nirvana, is free from all desires and attachments, and thus is no longer subject to rebirth.
