This is Nibbana, which is also called Nibbana with corporal remainder (sopadhi-sesa-nibbana).

The meaning of Nibbana is perfect peace or tranquility, or an eternally happy and joyous state in which wisdom, happiness and virtue are perfectly achieved.

Buddhists view such a sate as only attainable by holy ones, thus can not be judged by experienced conceptions like existence, non-existence, coming and going etc.

As I mentioned above, Nibbana can be interpreted as passing away.

Actually, Sakyamuni attained Nibbana and became a Buddha at the age of 30, yet his corporal body remained as the residual fruit of his former illusion and kamma.

It was not until his death at the age of 80, that he entered Nibbana without remainder (Nirupadhi-sesa-nibbana).
