Conscience

“Can a person constrained by conscience be found in the world, who is cognizant of blame, like a fine horse of the whip?”

Pāli · Sutta Piṭaka (Pāli, Mahāsaṅgīti)

“Hirīnisedhā tanuyā, ye caranti sadā satā; Antaṁ dukkhassa pappuyya, caranti visame saman”ti.

English · Bhikkhu Sujato

“Few are those constrained by conscience, who live always mindful. Having reached the end of suffering, smoothly they walk in the rough.”
