I do mean in the Buddhism/Hinduism sense. It just seems like kind of a letdown for the end of thought to be it. I had hoped there would be some supernatural powers or something.

do you mean enlightenment in the buddhism/hinduism sense? because in that case, total enlightenment would result in either the achievement of nibbana (or nirvana, depending on whether you read the pali or the sanskrit), or, for the hindu, moksha. which indicates total freedom from flesh and existence, the realisation of not-self.
yes, there are a few contradictions there, but thats part of the journey, apparently. so, in answer to your question, yes it would. but only if you avoid the western insistence that there must be a self to be enlightened in order to have enlightenment.

Enlightenment would never end. This world is changing and advancing everyday, There will always be more to learn.
