In Nirvana, there is no benefit and no loss.
In Nirvana, there is no reaching nor not-reaching.
In Nirvana, there is neither Nirvana nor Samsara nor not-Nirvana nor not-Samsara.
Nirvana is seen as an attainment by those who do not have it, but those who have attained it know it is not something attained.
Beyond intellect and all modes of thinking,
no tongue can speak it.
Nirvana is the light unseen.
Nirvana is the brilliance in the darkness.

Reaching Nirvana, the benefits are un-expressible. Most people who comprehend the concept of Nirvana would probably say that one gets free of the suffering of becoming again, but since I do not comprehend Nirvana, I am probably very wrong.

According to Buddhist philosophy, there is only void after the completion of this material life. Nirvana means "the stage when everything is extinguished." The Buddhists want to make everything void; they want to make all material varieties zero. That is the sum and substance of Buddhist philosophy. And Mäyäväda [impersonalistic] philosophy is more or less similar. It is a second edition of Buddhist philosophy. The Buddhists want to make everything zero without life, and the Mäyävädy philosophers say, "Yes, we should make the material varieties zero, but keep life." That is their mistake. Where there is life, there must be variety; life without variety is not possible. This is the defect of Mäyäväda philosophy.
According to Bhagavad gita:
Nirvana does not finish the existence of the soul. The soul is ever existing. Therefore Nirvana means to end one's material existence, and to end material existence means to go back home, back to Godhead.

Why should there be a benefit? If an end in itself is reached then that should be the end..a negation of mind and soul..I prefer to believe that even the destination has taken to the road..we travel on..whoever said there was an end?..No-one I have ever known.

You can meet Kurt Cobain and ask him if he really did kill himself.
Hehe, just kidding...
Reaching Nirvana would give you inner-peace and self-satisfaction...meaning you can live the rest of your life as a calm, understanding individual who understands his role in life...and has no fear of death.

State of peace for some (longer or shorter) time. Then back in the play.
