Buddhahood

The line of demarcation on a health crisis or discovery is nothing short of amazing. Health is fundamental to well-being, or so I thought. I've realized so far that perfect health doesn't always equate to Buddhahood, and Buddhahood doesn't always mean one is in perfect physical health.

Buddhahood means attaining wisdom through one's spiritual practice while meeting the requirements for doing this work. Some sources have revealed that Buddhahood is the highest attainment of a Bodhisattva and that a Bodhisattva is either on his way to enlightenment or has attained it. It is sometimes defined as that state of awareness beyond the ordinary, where one dwells in omniscience and has revealed the eternal truths available. It doesn't necessarily mean the same thing as enlightenment to the fullest degree, as in absolute consciousness. However, once Buddhahood is attained, avidya (not knowing) may be overcome by remembering the spiritual habits of having almost anything revealed by one's higher, Eternal self. In the grander scheme, the question and the answer are happening simultaneously, although, in Buddhahood, there may be a slight delay in factual attainment.

Repeating the lessons of previous lifetimes happens to everyone. Those who remember, recognize the lesson, and use specific spiritual tools to transmute the energy to a more rarefied or simplified form. One hasn't yet escaped karma in the highest sense, though one may master the physical plane of awareness completely.

However one may look upon Buddhahood, one thing is clearer to the Eye of Buddhi: the ability to know is fundamental to enlightenment, as is the ability to love one another completely.
