Is it just when a person realises the secret of life, like what Shakyamuni Buddha realised? Also, how does the person know when they have become enlightened? Does an enlightened person have all good qualities and no bad qualities at all, so they are perfect? Also, what happens to a Buddha when they die? If becoming enlightened stops the cycle of birth and rebirth, then where do the Buddhas go? Do they go to a heaven like place? All answers appreciated! Thank You!
