| A - B - C - D - E - F - G - H - I - J - K - L - M - N - O - P - Q - R - S - T - U - V - W - X - Y - Z | In Buddhism, buddhahood (Sanskrit: buddhatva.Pali: buddhatta. Or (both) buddhabhāva) is the state of perfect enlightenment. In Buddhism, the term 'buddha' usually refers to one who has become
enlightened (i.e., awakened to the truth, or Dharma) on their
own, without a teacher to point out the Dharma, in a time when the
teachings on the Four Noble Truths or the Eightfold Path do not exist
in the world, and teaches it to others. More broadly, it is occasionally
used to refer to all who attain nirvana. In this broader sense it
is equivalent to Arahant. According to Theravada Buddhism, all Arahants
(or Buddhas in the broader sense) are the same in the most fundamental
aspects of Liberation (Nirvana), but differ in their practice of
perfections paramis. Mahayana Buddhism, however, considers there
is a fundamental difference between Buddhas and ordinary arhants. Buddhahood; expression for the realizaion of perfect enlightenment,
which characterizes a buddha. The attainment of buddhahood
is the birthright and highest goal of all beings. According
to the highest teachings of Buddhism, as they are formulated, for
example, in Zen, every sentient being has or, better, is already
buddhanature; thus buddhahood cannot be "attained"; it
is much more a matter of experiencing the factuality of this primordial
perfection and realizing it in everyday life. |
