The Golden Rule—“Do unto others as you would have them do unto you”—is not just moral advice. It is the unifying principle found across every major faith and ethical system, including:
Judaism – “What is hateful to you, do not do to your neighbor.” (Talmud, Shabbat 31a)
Christianity – “Do to others what you would have them do to you.” (Matthew 7:12)
Islam – “None of you truly believes until he loves for his brother what he loves for himself.” (Hadith)
Hinduism – “This is the sum of duty: Do not do to others what would cause you pain.” (Mahabharata)
Buddhism – “Hurt not others in ways you yourself would find hurtful.” (Udana-Varga)
Confucianism – “Do not impose on others what you do not wish for yourself.” (Analects 15:23)
Zoroastrianism – “That nature is good which refrains from doing unto another whatever is not good for itself.” (Avesta)
Ancient Egypt – “I have not caused pain… I have not made anyone weep.” (Book of the Dead)Indigenous Traditions – “What you do to the web of life, you do to yourself.”
Across culture, geography, and time, this is the one law that governs all others—ethical reciprocity. It is the simplest, most universal moral compass. If we cannot govern by this alone, what are we really defending?
