Wei Ling Kung / 23

子贡问曰，有一言，而可以终身行之者乎。子曰，其恕乎，己所不欲，勿施于人。

Modern Chinese Guide

子贡问道：有没有一个字可以终身奉行的呢？孔子说：那大概就是恕吧！自己不愿意的，不要施加给别人。

James Legge Translation

Tsze-kung asked, saying, "Is there one word which may serve as a rule of practice for all one's life?" The Master said, "Is not reciprocity such a word? What you do not want done to yourself, do not do to others."
