Hiri Sutta: Conscience
translated from the Pali by
Thanissaro Bhikkhu
© 1998
Who in the world is a man constrained by conscience, who awakens to censure like a fine stallion to the whip? Those restrained by conscience are rare — those who go through life always mindful. Having reached the end of suffering & stress, they go through what is uneven evenly; go through what is out-of-tune in tune.
