Define achieving salvation as a Buddhist?

Buddhists do not share the concept of "salvation" with Christians. Buddhists have no god(s) that grant prayers, forgive sins, judge, save or condemn. The closest that might be seen as the "salvation" is enlightenment where a Buddhist sees how to run his life with enough skill to avoid desire. The Buddhist can then attain Nirvana, which he may or may not do depending on his choice.
