The Supreme Principle

"What good is a man's knowledge unless it prompts him to prevent the pain of others as if it were his own pain? Any actions which a man knows would harm himself he should not inflict on others.

The supreme principle is this: Never knowingly harm anyone at any time in any way."

-- Tirukkural 32: 315-317
