The Samyutta Nikaya
The Grouped Discourses
Samyutta Nikaya I.18
Hiri Sutta
Conscience
Translated from the Pali by Thanissaro Bhikkhu.
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.
