Glossary of Buddhism

Ujukatā (Pali) is a Buddhist term translated as "rectitude", and it is the basis for the following pair of mental factors within the Theravada Abhidharma teachings:

  • Kāya-ujukatā – rectitude of mental body
  • Citta-ujukatā – rectitude of consciousness

These two mental factors have the characteristic of uprightness of the mental body and consciousness, respectively.
