ATI Glossary

hiri-ottappa: “Conscience and concern”; “moral shame and moral dread.” These twin emotions — the “guardians of the world” — are associated with all skillful actions. Hiri is an inner conscience that restrains us from doing deeds that would jeopardize our own self-respect; ottappa is a healthy fear of committing unskillful deeds that might bring about harm to ourselves or others. See kamma. [ more ]

 

Buddhist Dictionary

by late Ven. Nyanalokita Thera:

hiri-ottappa: 'moral shame and moral dread', are associated with all kammically wholesome consciousness (see Table II).

“To be ashamed of what one ought to be ashamed of, to be ashamed of performing evil and unwholesome things: this is called moral shame. To be in dread of what one ought to be in dread of, to be in dread of performing evil and unwholesome things: this is called moral dread” Puggalapaññatti 79, 80

“Two lucid things, o monks, protect the world: moral shame and moral dread. If these two things were not to protect the world, then one would respect neither one's mother, nor one's mother's sister, nor one's brother's wife, nor one's teacher's wife ….” AN 2.7

Cf. ahirika. See Aṭṭhasālinī Translation I. pp. 164ff.
