Awakened is only one meaning. Buddha comes from the verb bujjhati which me=
ans "to be awake=2C to be enlightened=2C (acc.)=2C to perceive=2C to know=
=2C recognise=2C understand" (PED).
In the Path of Purity it states "Or alternatively=2C he discovered (bujjhi)=
the four truths by himself and awakened
(bodhesi) others to them=2C thus and for other such reasons he is enlighten=
ed
(buddha). And in order to explain this meaning the whole passage in the Nid=
desa
beginning thus: 'He is the discoverer (bujjhitar) of the truths=2C thus he =
is
enlightened (buddha). He is the awakened (bodhetar) of the generation=2C th=
us he is
enlightened (buddha)'
I chose jIvHa'wI' because I liked the way it was defined in the Tao Te Chin=
g. It seemed to mesh nicely with the above definition of buddha
