Relative bodhichitta (Tib. ཀུན་རྫོབ་སེམས་བསྐྱེད་, Wyl. kun rdzob sems bskyed) - the mind that is intent upon attaining perfect enlightenment for the sake of others. It is generated through formal practice, and so it is known as ‘coarse bodhichitta arising from signs.’ It consists of bodhichitta in aspiration and bodhichitta in action.
