10.11

「弟子等!如上所說,已懺悔於三寶間輕重諸罪,其餘諸惡今當次第更復懺悔。經中佛說:『有二種健兒:一者、自不作罪;二者、作已能悔。』又云:『有二種白法,能為眾生滅除眾障:一者、慚;二者、愧也。慚者自不作惡,愧者不令他作,有慚愧者可詺為人。若無慚愧與諸禽獸不相異也,慚者羞天,愧者所犯諸罪發露向人。』是故,弟子今日至誠慚愧歸依佛。

We disciples, as spoken above, have already repented of all light and heavy transgressions committed against the Three Jewels. Our other various evils shall now be repented in sequence again. In the sūtras, the Buddha spoke: 'There are two kinds of strong and valiant persons: first, those who do not commit transgressions themselves; second, those who, having committed them, are able to repent.' It is also said: 'There are two kinds of white dharmas that can eliminate all obstacles for sentient beings: the first is shame (hrī); the second is remorse (apatrāpya). Shame is not committing evil oneself; remorse is not causing others to do so. Those with shame and remorse may be called human beings; if devoid of shame and remorse, they are no different from beasts. Shame is feeling abashed before heaven; remorse is confessing and exposing one's committed sins before others.' Therefore, we disciples today take refuge in the Buddha with utmost sincerity, shame, and remorse:
