The Golden Rule: Ancient Egyptian "Do for one who may do for you, that you may cause him thus to do." The Tale of the Eloquent Peasant

The Golden Rule: Hinduism “This is the sum of duty: do not do to others what would cause pain if done to you.” Mahabharata 5:1517

The Golden Rule: Islam “None of you [truly] believes until he wishes for his brother what he wishes for himself." Number 13 of Imam "Al-Nawawi's Forty Hadiths."

The Golden Rule: Jainism "A man should wander about treating all creatures as he himself would be treated." Sutrakritanga

The Golden Rule: Plato "May I do to others as I would that they should do unto me."

The Golden Rule: Socrates "Do not do to others that which would anger you if others did it to you." Greece; 5th century BCE
