Buddhahood: Embodying the Perfect Scientific Process

Through examples characterizing the basic process of investigation, goals, and approach to teaching of both Buddhahood and the scientific process, I will attempt to argue that Buddhahood and the attainment of nirvana actually embody the perfected scientific process. However, I will also demonstrate that although Buddhahood embodies the perfected scientific process, is not fully described by it; there are limitations in the scientific process that Buddhahood transcends and utilizes to its advantage.
