Nirvana and Enlightenment #48

The word Buddha comes from the Sanskrit root Budh, which means "to awaken."

In the Pali Canons of Buddhism it is recorded that there were twenty-eight Buddhas or enlightened beings who existed prior to Siddhartha Guatama.

Twenty-eight before, how many after?

Enlightenment is available.
