Could you elucidate? Buddhism seeing enlightnment as instrumental to something in particular - transcendance - I think is an important difference.
Becoming enlightened frees you from the eternal cycle of suffering and rebirth on earth, essentially. It's where things start getting metaphysical. But it's difficult to deal with Buddhism as a whole in the WP tradition, unless we directly and exclusively address the Sutras (which is not what I have been doing here), and even then, extracting arguments is not as straightforward as would be for a WP text.
