佛說佛名經 25.8

25.8

「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, we have already performed kṣamā for all minor and major sins and all other evils committed against the triratna; now we should again perform kṣamā for them in order. In the sūtra the Buddha said: 'There are two kinds of strong persons: first, those who do not commit sins themselves; second, those who, having committed [sins], are able to repent.' It is also said: 'There are two kinds of pure dharmas that can eliminate and destroy 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 commit it. One who possesses shame and remorse may be called a human being. If one lacks shame and remorse, one is no different from beasts. Shame is feeling blush before heaven; remorse is disclosing all committed sins to others.' Therefore, we disciples, today with utmost sincerity, shame, and remorse, take refuge in the Buddha."
