Annihilation or Nirvana

Oxford dictionary defines, annihilate= to destroy completely. Nirvana= the state of peace and happiness that a person achieves after giving up all personal desires.
I came to know the word,'enlightenment', when I read about Buddha, that he got enlightenment after 24 births and he became Buddha and got nirvana= annihilation.

Annihilation or Nirvana

Ramakrishna teaches 2 annihilate our mind in order 2 grasp d god entity or 2 bcome one with god- Kathamrita 3/78,82.
Practically its impossible. Man is a tripartite being consisting : body,soul(mind) & spirit. One cant separate d soul 4m d spirit. Man is never devoid of mind 4 a fraction of a second. Its always working even in sleep d subconcious mind is at work & in coma also. according 2 RK how in samadhi ones mind can b devoid ?
what is samadhi by d way? Can it b defind by medical science ? In my opinion there is no such thing as samadhi. RK was suffering 4m a disease called Epilepsy, Schizophrenia, a mental disorder. Dr. Mahendralal Sirkar often used 2 come 4 His treatment. Read RK Lilaprosongo-II vlo.
This same RK said many contradictory things regarding d 'mind'. he said, " it is needed 2 worship god with body, mind & speech"- Katha 3/110,111. How strange ! Read more, 4 contradictions- Katha 3/193, 216,246.
My problem is I want 2 b 1 with god. I read RK,Vivekananda & whole lot of Hindu scriptures, medical science & other religious books. Hinduism confuses me d most. Can u help?

Annihilation or Nirvana

Annihilation or Nivana

According 2 Hindu religious belief there r 84 cycles of rebirth. According 2 Hinduism d spirit of man is immortal. There r above 33crores gods. There r many devout Hindus. They really r pious. Their believe in d existence of the Paramatma is true. But still they dont achieve moksha. They still remain in the
fake belief of rebirth. Why cant their gods r not pleased with them? Why dont d gods allow them 2 attain moksha? I m confised.
Hinduism derived 4m Buddhisim. Buddha never spoke anything about god or Paramatma. So we take it 4 granted that Buddhisim is nothing but atheisim. If Buddha never itoduced god where did d conception of god come 4m in Hinduism?
After Buddha came Jesus. Jesus introduced God d Creator. My question is, did Judaism introduce god in Hinduism? Coz, there is no god concept in Vedas. Brahma came in Upanishada. Still in Upanishada there is no god. Vivekananda wrote, Brahma & God r different entity. How come in Puranas god appeared 4m nowhere?
