our traditions teach...

Love your neighbor as yourself.  
- Leviticus 19:18

Picture
This is the sum of duty: do not do to others what would cause pain if done to you. 
- Mahabharata 5:1517

Picture
Not one of you truly believes until you wish for others what you wish for yourself.
- The Prophet Muhammad, Hadith

Picture
The King will answer and say to them, “Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did it to one of these brothers of Mine, even the least of them, you did it to Me.” 
- Matthew 25:40

Picture
Every religion emphasizes human improvement, love, respect for others, sharing other people's suffering. On these lines every religion had more or less the same viewpoint and the same goal. 
 - The Dalai Lama
