          Old Chinese Criteria
          The notion of an inner organ of moral judgment is not well attested in pre-Buddhist China. Having a "good conscience" is unheard of, and having a "bad conscience" in the form of feelings of moral distress is, in the LY-tradition, but first attested in Taó Qiān, nèi jiù 內疚. typically takes the form not of remorse so much as of varieties of regret 悔 or 恨. The history of strong regret huǐ 悔 is an important part of the history of emotions in China.

          Modern Chinese Criteria
