Ahimsa- compassion toward all beings

See the world as your self.
Have faith in the way things are.
Love the world as your self;
Then you can care for all things.
- Tao te Ching #13

Treat yourself as you would treat a friend
Notice your internal dialogue. Do you say things about yourself you would never say about a friend?

Treat the world as if it is living and breathing. Treat the world with a knowledge of interconnection; harming something else harms you.
