(vyapatrApya, vyapatrApya)
vyapatrāpya¦, nt. (as prec.; cf. apatrāpya), shame, modesty, bashfulness: lajjā-°pya-saṃlīna-cetās Divy 255.16, hrī-°pya-gṛhītā 23 (here the bashfulness of love); shame of an evil deed, (śikṣāvyatikrame) °pyam utpadyate Bbh 137.20; in this sense in cpd. hrī-°pya, °pyaṃ prāviṣkaroti Bbh 6.1; similarly 137.25 f.; 159.14; 180.2; 250.8 (katamad bodhisattvānāṃ hrī-vyapatrāpyaṃ); a distinction between hrī and vyapa° is made in Bbh 250.10--12, where both are glossed lajjā, but hrī is said to mean the feeling that a blameworthy act is unworthy of oneself, vyapatrāpya is the feeling caused thereby thru fear or respect of others. Is this anything more than a commentator's ad-hoc attempt at subtlety ? In AbidhK. LaV-P. ii.172 hrī is defined in a way suggesting rather vyapatrāpya of Bbh.
