None. They're already enlightened, so there's no need for more enlightenment from a bulb.

All of them, and everybody who's not enlightened, too, because we're all one.

An enlightened person is not born in a day. It is said that Buddha was born after one thousand years of meditation by humanity .

One, unless their physical dexterity is impaired. . . after enlightment, chop wood, carry water, and change lightbulbs.

Blessings from Belle,

Thanks for playing! Smiling at all of the replies!

mine would be:

They don't have to change any light bulbs because they "see the light".

All of them, because if any were missing it wouldn't be the same light bulb.

Everything is interdependent.

They wouldn't understand the question. An enlightened person would not comprehend the concept of "change".

They don't need to change it, they can just attract another one.



or




They can't change it, until they work out why they attracted the broken one in the first place.

It doesn't take a single person yet all of the universe to change.

They first have to locate the broken light bulb. then when set bulb has been detected ether by vision or spiritual guidance the true meaning of its physical existence must be attained...after the future scanning ,tarrocard reading and vague question-answer game has been played the bulb must be scrutinized for evil entities. if all is clear the medium would visit the bulb in an astral imaginative state to see if his/her thoughts on the matter is bothering him/her....and after the situation has been established to be safe they would probably just call an electrician........

Same as the number of Shamans it'd take: 100.

One to change it and 99 to stand around saying, "That's not how I learned to do it..."
