In Buddhism

Theravada (major branch of Buddhism)

: Pali Kanon: Pali Proper Names

A Yakkha chieftain to be invoked in time of need by followers of the Buddha. D.iii.205; DA.iii.970.

: Journey to Nibbana: Patthana Dhama

Part of the Sobhana Cetasikas. Hiri hinders citta not to do bad things as doing so probably will face with disgraceful situations. In the presence of hiri, as it reminds to consider the consequences of the actions, citta will not do bad things due to this inhibition. It always arises with its friend ottappa cetasika as a companion.

Together with ottappa, these two cetasikas guard the world in the favourable social conditions. Men and women are attracted to each other and this finally leads to sex. But hiri and ottappa hinder unnecessary events. These two cetasikas are called lokapala dhamma. They work not only in avoiding sex matter in inappropriate relationship but also in avoiding all akusala dhamma.
