Right view on _nibbāna_ was explained to you nearly two weeks ago. You chose to ignore that answer.

> We have to understand that _nibbāna_ is real, at least in the functional sense (and it has its own _sabhāva_). That is to say, it becomes the real object of _lokuttara cittas_. It also acts as object condition for _lokuttara cittas_ to contact it. Those _lokuttara cittas_ uproot real defilements when they do contact it. But it’s tricky because _nibbāna_ does not arise, change, or pass away, making it unique among _paramattha dhammas_. But this does not mean that _Arahants_ “enter” some kind of _nibbāna_ when they pass away. It isn’t like that at all. _Nibbāna_ is simply a _paramattha dhamma_, and it is contacted by _lokuttara cittas_ when they perform their function. For _Arahants_, there are no more conditions for the arising of any _nāma_ or _rūpa_ again after they pass away. At _parinibbāna_, there is no “entering” some kind of _nibbāna_.

It is the destruction of greed, the destruction of hate and the destruction of delusion”_) is this: the unformed element is nibbāna, whose nature (sabhāva) is unformed. But because greed and so on are destroyed on coming to this (etaṃ āgamma), it is therefore called “the destruction of greed, the destruction of hate and the destruction of delusion”. This is the agreed commentary of the Teachers.
