Reaching enlightenment through reincarnations typically involves the belief that the soul undergoes a cycle of birth, death, and rebirth, learning lessons in each life. Each incarnation provides opportunities for spiritual growth, allowing individuals to overcome ignorance and attachment. Ultimately, enlightenment is achieved when one transcends this cycle, realizing their true nature and unity with the universe. Practices such as meditation, ethical living, and self-reflection can aid in this journey.
There is no goal of "a complete cycle of your reincarnations". They continue until you reach enlightenment (this is up to you and your learning to be skillful in your life) when you might reach Nirvana the state of selfless or egoless being - unless you opt not to, choosing instead to re-enter the cycle of death and rebirth to help others gain enlightenment.
Gaining enlightenment is traveling the path of pure spirituality, absolute spirituality! The path of spirituality is best traveled fathoming the depth of wisdom contained in sacred Bhagavad-Gita of Hinduism. Bhagavad-Gita of Hinduism is one such document knowing which one finally emancipates from cycle of birth and death forever gains enlightenment (kaivalya jnana).
