The Pali word for remorse or regret in the definition of the five hindrances (in MN 10 ) is "kukucca". Sometimes, this word is also translated as worry or anxiety. This word usually appears together with "uddhacca".
However, the Pali word translated as remorse in Itivuttaka 30 is "tapanīya " (according to this Pali version ).
In AN 11.1 , AN 11.2 , AN 5.41 , Thanissaro Bhikkhu's translation has the word "remorse", while Sujato Bhikkhu's translation has the word "regret". The Pali term for this is "vippaṭisāra ". This can also be found in Udana 8.5 .
What is the difference between these terms?
