Conscience
“हिरीनिसेधो पुरिसो, कोचि लोकस्मिं विज्जति; यो निन्दं अपबोधति, अस्सो भद्रो कसामिवा”ति।
“Hirīnisedho1 puriso, koci lokasmiṁ vijjati; Yo nindaṁ apabodhati, asso bhadro kasāmivā”ti.
“Can a person constrained by conscience be found in the world? Who shies away from blame, like a fine horse from the whip?”
“हिरीनिसेधा तनुया, ये चरन्ति सदा सता; अन्तं दुक्खस्स पप्पुय्य, चरन्ति विसमे समन्”ति।
“Hirīnisedhā tanuyā, ye caranti sadā satā; Antaṁ dukkhassa pappuyya, caranti visame saman”ti.
“Few are those constrained by conscience, who live always mindful. Having reached the end of suffering, they live smoothly in the rough.”
