1.3.7 By Sense of Shame*
“Is there anyone in this world who by sense of shame restrains himself
Who prevents blame like a well-trained horse the whip?”
“Few are those, who by sense of shame restrain themselves,
Always wander about with mindfulness,
Obtaining the end of suffering, they wander from disharmony to harmony.”
*Hirīsuttaṃ: hirī — shame + suttaṃ
