Buddhism
The end goal for Buddha to reach is enlightenment, or Nirvana. This is a state of liberation from the cycle of birth, death, and rebirth, and represents the ultimate goal of spiritual practice in Buddhism.
The goal of all Buddhists is to attain enlightenment. Enlightenment can be best described as understanding and seeing the world as it is without preconceived ideas or judgements; that is seeing what actually is happening not what we think is happening, which are two distinct things. The idea is that once we stop the misconception of how the world works we can be happier (less discontentment). Furthermore, the goal of some Buddhists, called a Bodhisattva is to bring all beings to this enlightenment.
I think you question really is "why is Bodhiimportant in Buddhism". Bodhi is the word for enlightenment in Pali and Sanskrit. Bodhi is the goal of Buddhism. To reach that state in which we can see clearly and understand the universe, our place in it and how it all is interconnected is a Buddhist's goal.
