In Buddhism
Theravada (major branch of Buddhism)
Rapture; bliss; delight. In meditation, a pleasurable quality in the mind that reaches full maturity upon the development of the second level of jhana.M Joy, enthusiasm. Sensation of physical and mental lightness given by the purity of consciousness.
One of the Pakinnaka cetasikas. Piti is likeness. It helps citta like the object. Piti also energizes citta. In the presence of piti, citta and accompanying cetasikas become less tired and they become inexhaustible and can work much more effectively than without piti as they are stick to the object as they like it. There are different degrees of piti. Somanassa is associated with piti.
enthusiasm; happiness (Visuddhimagga (IV, 100));
Its function is to refresh the body and the mind; or its function is to pervade (thrill with rapture). It is manifested as elation.
Piti is not the same as pleasant feeling, its characteristic and function are different. Piti does not feel, its characteristic issatisfaction and its function is refreshing or invigorating body and mind
Piti takes an interest in the object which citta cognizes and which is also experienced by the accompanying cetasikas. It is satisfied, delighted with the object and it "refreshes" citta and the accompanying cetasikas. (The Atthasalini ( I, Part lV, Chapter 1, 115))
Pīti (“interest”); cf. Tab. II.
rapture, enthusiasm (rendered also by joy, happiness); interest it is one of the mental factors or concomitants (cetasika) and belongs to the group of mental formations (sankhāra-kkhandha). As, in sutta texts, it is often linked in a compound word. with 'gladness' (pāmojja) or 'happiness' (sukha), some Western translations have wrongly taken it as a synonym of these two terms. Pīti, however, is not a feeling or a sensation, and hence does not belong to the feeling-group (vedanā-kkhandha), but may be described psychologically as 'joyful interest'. As such it may be associated with wholesome as well as with unwholesome and neutral states of consciousness.
A high degree of rapture is characteristic of certain stages in meditative concentration, in insight practice (vipassanā) as well as in the first two absorptions (jhāna, q.v.). In the latter it appears as one of the factors of absorption (jhānanga; s. jhāna) and is strongest in the 2nd absorption.
Five degrees of intensity in meditative rapture are described in Vis.M. IV. 94ff.
It is one of the factors of enlightenment (bojjhanga, q.v.).
Theravāda is a major branch of Buddhism having the the Pali canon (tipitaka) as their canonical literature, which includes the vinaya-pitaka (monastic rules), the sutta-pitaka (Buddhist sermons) and the abhidhamma-pitaka (philosophy and psychology).

披剃 [pī tì] [pi ti]—

From Ming (明 [ming]) Dynasty's Gao Ming (高明 [gao ming]) The Lute (琵琶記 [pi pa ji]), Act 24: "If I had long ago undergone piti (批剃 [pi ti]) and entered the Buddhist monastic order (空門 [kong men]) to become a nun (尼姑 [ni gu]), I would have been spared hardship (艱辛 [jian xin]) tonight."
披剃:出家。根據佛教戒律,僧尼出家,須剃鬚髮,披上袈裟,故稱為「披剃」。明.高明《琵琶記》第二四齣:「我當初早批剃入空門也,做個尼姑去,今晚免艱辛。」
