Pari or Para ?

While Sanskrit words such as parAnirvana or parAnishpanna might
be constructed or even exist.  I think HPB meant (in spite of the
spelling she often used of "para") parinirvana & parinishpanna.
Both terms are found spelled thusly in Buddhism and her meaning
was not too different, if at all, from their common use.
