[&#8230;] conventional bodhichitta is the mind wishing to become enlightened in order to benefit all sentient beings, and ultimate bodhichitta is the wisdom that realizes emptiness in the mind of a superior bodhisattva. Both are needed for enlightenment, and neither is possible without renunciation. So renunciation, wisdom, and bodhichitta are all needed.&#8221;<br \/>\n<br \/>\nWithin these two concepts of relative and ultimate bodhicittas, therefore, we find distilled the entire Bodhisattva path.
