http://philosophy.tamu.edu/~gary/bioethics/ethicaltheory/universalizability. html Variations on the familiar "Golden Rule" are found in most world religions: * Christian version: "Treat others as you would like them to treat you" (Luke 6:31, New English Bible). * Hindu version: "Let not any man do unto another any act that he wisheth not done to himself by others, knowing it to be painful to himself" (Mahabharata, Shanti Parva, cclx.21). * Confucian version: "Do not do to others what you would not want them to do to you" (Analects, Book xii, #2). * Buddhist version: "Hurt not others with that which pains yourself" (Udanavarga, v. 18). * Jewish version: "What is hateful to yourself do not do to your fellow man. That is the whole of the Torah" (Babylonian Talmud, Shabbath 31a). * Muslim version: "No man is a true believer unless he desires for his brother that which he desires for himself" (Hadith, Muslim, imam 71-72).
