"Do not treat others as they treat you; treat them as you would like to be treated."
So many of the problems in the world could be solved today if people put themselves in the shoes of others and treat others as they would like to be treated.
The Idea: Make the Dalai Lama's Ten Virtuous Actions an integral part of your life.
• Protect and save life - plant, animal and human.
• Give and do not take what is not given.
• Treat your partner respectfully (respect your marriage vows or practice fidelity).
• Speak honestly.
• Speak with the goal to bring harmony among beings.
• Speak gently.
• Refrain from gossip.
• Be happy for others’ accomplishments.
• Be loving toward all.
• Have a view that includes karma.
The Cost: Nothing, but the will to improve yourself.
The Benefit: You will be treated as how you treat others and will be able to live a more fulfilling life.
