== Discussion == arrogance. One of the near afflictions. It is conceit that focuses on one's own self, one's own body, family, and so forth, as superior. It is sometimes translated as haughtiness, but haughtiness implies someone of high social status whereas even low status beings can be arrogant. DKC
