Detailed explanation-1: -The ultimate goal for every Buddhist is to achieve a state known as nirvana (enlightenment). o A bodhisattva (enlightened being) is an individual who has broken this cycle of birth and rebirth and is thus able to achieve enlightenment but chooses to stay on earth and help other people attain nirvana.
Detailed explanation-2: -In Buddhism, the “Bodhisattva” (Snskt) is one who has realized enlightenment, or “nirvana, ‘’ but out of compassion for the suffering of sentient beings has deliberately resolved to delay reaching final nirvana, complete release from samsaric rebirth, in order to aid others in achieving enlightenment.
