Changes

[[Mahayana]] and [[Theravada]] Buddhism have different attitudes towards Bodhisattvas. In the Theravada tradition, an [[Arhat]] has achieved complete [[enlightenment]] (personal liberation) as an individual without becoming a Bodhisattva or a Buddha. In contrast, the Mahayana look on such an Arhat or Pratayeka's realization of "[[individual liberation]]" as somewhat selfish. In the Mahayana one must become a Bodhisattva in order to realize [[Anuttara Samyak Sambodhi]] or the full and complete enlightenment of a [[Buddha]] with the wish of [[Bodhichitta]]. Bodhichitta is the great [[vow]] and [[attitude]] to wish to realize [[Buddhahood]] in order to liberate all [[sentient being]]s.
