Here we go
If anything I never really bother with photos but as the year progresses GET READY FOR PICTURES OF PARROTS! until then have been painting and trying to keep the parrot his blue colour not what I'm painting the cupboards with in sandstone... He is still well behaved though and painting is rather therapeutic...
Found a picture of my eye though and it came out rather detailed it seems, otherwise more updates later but hoping the weather is decent enough for walks; especially with special parrot rucksack this year...

Religion
For how things always are the fact of science being they are observable and measurable yet practical makes so much play in many areas that to fall in love with every facet of all things sacred is still zen philosophy to again pull it all back in and remove waste... For anything we can solidify from energy and good production with even possibly in 5 years automated to market self driving HGV it then leaves us wondering what else can we provide and at no more then usual time cost due to honed on constant automated robotic production... As for religion all are curious but in practicality to be in love with so many different areas of discipline and even security a strong discipline in itself... How much can you do and end with 3 emails a day reports and what is the limit if I set retirement at about 250 million yet open source given up to the gov they can do the same with theoretic billions.... All in good time but augmented reality instead of email can be then stated on again of how much can you see and get brought to attention in a 3d holloform that otherwise gets you stuck with logs that you can never sift through as fast...
Neo-shaman? Still means Buddhist I think in Korean but as with everything what we eat and drink and massage oils and all the rest... Loads and loads of opportunity yet spiritual wise 8 told path it fits so great but the darma wheel of how much asset in production can you manage before you have to grab onto the darma wheel and get spun off? In short small taps to a sacred robotic system to manage a huge amount of production asset is when is the balance right you tap at the dharma wheel not fully engrossed and soon ending spinning off into chaos...
This year...
Well for the next 5 years will be too busy with company startup and bits... Possibly this year will get a bike licence but have done off road a few times... Whether that means I go ahead with the ninja Kawasaki Electric conversion that I've had plans with for years or just usual petrol will see... How to stash a 5 meter rollable or foldable solar panel set I think I could have the space... Otherwise down to Cornwall for a cornish pasty and creme tea and all over again as a parrot in a space capsule rucksack he really needs to get used to seeing the UK...
With all this covid19 stuff though I hope things will stay open but too busy next few years to consider leaving UK, will do later but health and business first...

Faux passe
Not nirvana the very high rock band or mount nirvana the very high mountain... But what if like shiva it did after a very long meditation was told to follow a star and end up finding my wife Avril... Like shiva did... So what the Internet is cheating? ;) pathlines are pathlines...
Vows
Why so many dissappear and come back?
It seems for a lot of us things have gotten a bit tough and testing every part of us... Never was this wished for by any of us but to borrow bits from all faiths I myself for example would carry heavier and heavier pack weights and recite sutra walking far past midnight to early morning... It took me a while to realise what I was doing and what I was striving for yet I recited and walked myself to death for over 10 years... It got to a point not only feeling stronger but vows came into place and took hold of every part of me until it resonated every day after and the vows and recitation then started to be reflected on as "what was I doing?" in short stating love me and always will be me and without sin that part was easy but where am I going and where am I headed was me purchased a ring as before anything else at all to know you have you eternally and constantly gaining strength in everything you was the equivalent of the diamond sutra of your own that made your mind in itself let alone the body clarity and hardness of diamond...

I'm fine
I have to admit I have not been so well at all though.. As we are in this very very very much strict controlled dimension and yet out of the 5 sacred realms I'm used to realms at level 2 that even the grass yells at you to get off of it... You see this realm is pure science and everything locked down yet a realm with magic plus 1 is your body never decays it runs on soul energy yet all science dictates a rocket made it into space due to pure science yet at the 5th ultra high level "sacred" dimensions the banana rocket ran on lite magic meaning soul energy... Why do we reincarnate here? If we all reincarnated at a level 5 realm out rockets would run on our own soul energy yet at our strict realm it is instantly defunct... By the same token why does my veg scream and the grass on higher levels but not this one and that is because we are in a realm of hardcore energy lockdown and any magic heavy penalised as training wheels on.. Never to say that a sacred level 2 of more is not a veg or plant not noting less energy expenditure to unlock more of the dna that otherwise at out reincarnate level costs it a fortune...
The next level?
I am always taught in the regard that even the simple little things that bring joy are shown through existence to get greater and greater in time length of joy in itself... Am told the real nirvana or place of eternal learning is about 300 billion earth years learning at level 1 to be dropped back into level zero as lots and lots of n00bs as such but the level 1 don't just have the higher energy to teleport up a dimension and back down but have the 300 billion earth years training that to anyone on level 0 never saw a thing other than we left and returned in a single blink of an eye... Anyway for now very busy in grounded projects but welcome to eternity could be a book I write and yet for now I'm still picking through it all so will be some years yet...
Imprinting with parrots
I wonder myself the same.. The moment the parrot breaks open the egg and while rather blind in days is syringe fed and makes an imprint on the parent... While my little one is only after 16 weeks brought to me I still wonder what imprint I could have made from egg that would have gotten my little one over his fears and to bond and trust irrifutibly... As for the queen's birthday it just fell on it but with much consolances ourselves as to the passing of the Duke of Edinborough a chance to spoil the cordie dogs rotten could really be taken up a notch when the queen can ask a council how to spoil a corgie and the opinion being world wide... Next time? Checked myself the pet shop that stated sex inconclusive which seems a parrot thing but male cock 14 weeks was the receipt to had to give pet insurance yet I wonder again when does a parrot of such apparent high intellect consider me dad and if I had handled him from egg of he would have been so careful with everything...
From egg I would say that would be a premium parrot breeder service and the imprint and bond is instant not simply learned with causion as these parrots of later in years are with us...
My baby Quakers birthday
So looking really and while I have a parrot harness already my baby parrot has only just after last September shown how much he really is settling and and nerves less shot... While when I had him last year he has always been nervous while my cockatiel escaped out a flynet over an open window and was suspect it got information overload to freak out so hard he never could come back... So a nice thing for his birthday, the Queen of the commenwealth birthday that he shares.. He is such a little one and yet with intellect shown is also a far more fearful of his environment as he even goes into the kitchen he freaks out so a leach outside doesn't seem correct where the cockatiel would have been more ready...
In short not a seed stick like my got a cockatiel but a happy medium for my very intellectual yet timid blue quaker... It is a back pack I can add to my own pack so from his birthday he can come on walks and fishing with me... Maybe age 3 or 4 may try the leash but all in good time for this very well behaved parrot breed...
He goes into the hallway and quarks or more or less barks and growls to come back and chill on his pirch... So him ready for outside? With this birthday present to him at least he come lake district and learn more and get over his fear...

Matters of sorts
It is always to be the same though...
Check list wise we are always striving for understanding and yet zen Buddhism is a take on Chinese philosophy that even Hindu state that all their teachers are still based on instilled teachings of Buddhism...
I mean the deadly sins? these are not things not of common understanding as MarK or Marc in the French bible would say is that "did you like that behaviour and if you didn't like it then never was anyone even an ultimate demon to state it is powerful enough to force you to emulate or replicate it.
But just understand a few things that in short are added to these very much set in stone commandments and never was it us looking at any religious doctrine and seeing a telling off but the opposite of wanting to know who it is we are and why we act in so much compassion when illusion states nobody else "acts like us"
But for all the religious teachings in the globe we all get to a point of "nirvana" and no that is not a rock band or a, very very high, place in Canada but it is in fairness a place of a single point in time where ones can go into deep study of themselves and meditate over 10 years in all matters of what we are and that is eternal...
Checklists? you love yourself? you have no regrets? you love really good people and ordered systems and you really get bliss from incredible things like music?
In short for us to age after this "god" assesses us from this 120 odd Earth life cycle then we raise and become immortal.. with existence of no end and never was this the first time just that we as the observer are reincarnated or "born again" then even with no friends of whatever just understand and grasp onto the very fact of what it is and that is you can verify you of no regret is again born into existence reincarnate and yet time yet is too simplistic as years of Earth when the last reincarnate is them a googol fold a googol and then only then raised in level of existence triggering a reincarnation once again.... ah... but you are them? yes yes... but you are them but not them... you are just simply you again reincarnate...
To state how you need to understand they raised a level... they are them but you are you a baby reincarnate again... they are you those a googol fold a googol higher in Earth years? yes they are.. but they are you is where we state that they are not you the observer as they are their own, another facet of your own soul... so... what makes us us? we can state the pillars of truth... they are themselves us yet not us in the way of we are the observer of us reincarnating yet they are themselves that have seen far far past a googol...
What can I sum this upto? in short... they are higher and same soul and "love you like their own child" and yet you are them? and yet the coolest thing about existence is the crazy quantum mechanics that states that you didn't have just the potential but actual pathline through time space so you "are it" yet time in the 4th dimension has only in time staggered just how much you truly exist to existence and other good people... the 5th dimension for example a curled up ball until you inspect it as so crazy can be seen and all meditators know the same of this existence that tests us with "what could be but never was yet what was not fixed then should be" then we remember what we are without sin and that the "rite of passage" as not just magic but the very same discipline of our higher selves are found in worth by existence let alone love us for who we are so never was they not a bond of love to not just our higher reincarnate of last but existence itself loves us so trust in yourself..
Leave it here... music!! music!! otherwise as said busy but medicine, food, energy and all the sacred is very time consuming yet benefit to all is the same as we always say of "why bite the hand that feeds it when so much else wrong in the world"

Question for Avril?
Well I have to admit that never have I come across a high resolution picture Avril of your eyes... though I wonder if they are like mine of blue with silver inner rings yet sometimes I see less resolution images and ponder if it is it... regardless never said it had to be for them to be interesting...
Otherwise as said this year have a lot to be doing but pretty much finishing up meditation after 15 odd years of nothing but solitude meditation, playstation getting bigger but off sea fishing seems a wise decision to finish off more research this year...
The year of lots up in the air but while I have stacks of videos from youtube to get through I did note one dj set by faithless and others that I am going to watch but otherwise so much to be looking at that I've frozen phat dj playlist with this set as again a little slow to settle into but at about 10 minutes you really groove with it all the way through...
More updates in a year as well as research progression...

Quaker parrot fixed his beak
In the previous photo he was introduced to a geode that my other cockatiel used to enjoy and after a bit of overzealous sharpening he then left it and went back to just sitting and grinding his beak for like 6 hours a day... Has since then finished grinding on the harsher Rock about 2 minutes a day so he has done well... Would have gone to a vet if it caused him issues with eating but he does well and trying new foods...
Looking at birthdays and where things landed he now shares the Queens birthday where the cockatiel I lost out a window was Halloween..

Scientific Channels
It was not like we were not brought up with a TV always running in the background as such but Discovery channel certainly had its worth of a mega marathon run of "how it's made" for example was episode after episode after episode of very much process driven mass production and am sure all did really ponder the assembly language of so simplistic flow yet football lengths of mechanical flows that made for example "how it's made" very enjoyable...
Youtube Ted Talks and a whole mega bunch of survival like bear grills was fun to watch but getting well practised at visual 3d form structure learning is still going to be the best practice in fast and actual comprehensive learning... the brain handles multiple flows and everyting in 3D and retains it better yet all never give up text ever that s how we think quick... even a mathematicion would say they use language first as they are only then math to show or be explaining a 3d form or flow of representation...
Better sources than discovery? I want another round of "how it's made though" and those programs that had them go to junk yards to salvage crazy...
An image from imgr made me laugh but as said sifting through all the junk is the overburdening of the noise to ratio of pure gold or diamond to teach...

What are you trying to say? you are a football team not a global collective of pure love?
Etymology
The term "Golden Rule", or "Golden law", began to be used widely in the early 17th century in Britain by Anglican theologians and preachers;[7] the earliest known usage is that of Anglicans Charles Gibbon and Thomas Jackson in 1604.[1][8]
Ancient history
Ancient Egypt
Possibly the earliest affirmation of the maxim of reciprocity, reflecting the ancient Egyptian goddess Ma'at, appears in the story of "The Eloquent Peasant", which dates to the Middle Kingdom (c. 2040–1650 BCE): "Now this is the command: Do to the doer to make him do."[9][10] This proverb embodies the do ut des principle.[11] A Late Period (c. 664–323 BCE) papyrus contains an early negative affirmation of the Golden Rule: "That which you hate to be done to you, do not do to another."[12]
Ancient India
Sanskrit tradition
In Mahābhārata, the ancient epic of India, there is a discourse in which sage Brihaspati tells the king Yudhishthira the following
One should never do something to others that one would regard as an injury to one's own self. In brief, this is dharma. Anything else is succumbing to desire.
— Mahābhārata 13.114.8 (Critical edition)
The Mahābhārata is usually dated to the period between 400 BCE and 400 CE.[13][14]
Tamil tradition
In Chapter 32 in the Part on Virtue of the Tirukkuṛaḷ (c. 1st century BCE to 5th century CE), Valluvar says:
Do not do to others what you know has hurt yourself.
— Kural 316[15]
Why does one hurt others knowing what it is to be hurt?
— Kural 318[15]
Furthermore, in verse 312, Valluvar says that it is the determination or code of the spotless (virtuous) not to do evil, even in return, to those who have cherished enmity and done them evil. According to him, the proper punishment to those who have done evil is to put them to shame by showing them kindness, in return and to forget both the evil and the good done on both sides (verse 314).[16]
Ancient Greece
The Golden Rule in its prohibitive (negative) form was a common principle in ancient Greek philosophy. Examples of the general concept include:
- "Avoid doing what you would blame others for doing." – Thales[17] (c. 624–c. 546 BCE)
- "What you do not want to happen to you, do not do it yourself either. " – Sextus the Pythagorean.[18] The oldest extant reference to Sextus is by Origen in the third century of the common era.[19]
- "Do not do to others that which angers you when they do it to you." – Isocrates[20] (436–338 BCE)
Ancient Persia
The Pahlavi Texts of Zoroastrianism (c. 300 BCE–1000 CE) were an early source for the Golden Rule: "That nature alone is good which refrains from doing to another whatsoever is not good for itself." Dadisten-I-dinik, 94,5, and "Whatever is disagreeable to yourself do not do unto others." Shayast-na-Shayast 13:29[21]
Ancient Rome
Seneca the Younger (c. 4 BCE–65 CE), a practitioner of Stoicism (c. 300 BCE–200 CE) expressed the Golden Rule in his essay regarding the treatment of slaves: "Treat your inferior as you would wish your superior to treat you."[22]
Religious context
According to Simon Blackburn, the Golden Rule "can be found in some form in almost every ethical tradition".[23]
Abrahamic religions
Judaism
A rule of altruistic reciprocity was stated positively in a well-known Torah verse (Hebrew: ואהבת לרעך כמוך):
You shall not take vengeance or bear a grudge against your kinsfolk. Love your neighbor as yourself: I am the LORD.
— Leviticus 19:18[24]
Hillel the Elder (c. 110 BCE – 10 CE),[25] used this verse as a most important message of the Torah for his teachings. Once, he was challenged by a gentile who asked to be converted under the condition that the Torah be explained to him while he stood on one foot. Hillel accepted him as a candidate for conversion to Judaism but, drawing on Leviticus 19:18, briefed the man:
What is hateful to you, do not do to your fellow: this is the whole Torah; the rest is the explanation; go and learn.
Hillel recognized brotherly love as the fundamental principle of Jewish ethics. Rabbi Akiva agreed, while Simeon ben Azzai suggested that the principle of love must have its foundation in Genesis chapter 1, which teaches that all men are the offspring of Adam, who was made in the image of God.[27][28] According to Jewish rabbinic literature, the first man Adam represents the unity of mankind. This is echoed in the modern preamble of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.[29][30] And it is also taught, that Adam is last in order according to the evolutionary character of God's creation:[28]
Why was only a single specimen of man created first? To teach us that he who destroys a single soul destroys a whole world and that he who saves a single soul saves a whole world; furthermore, so no race or class may claim a nobler ancestry, saying, 'Our father was born first'; and, finally, to give testimony to the greatness of the Lord, who caused the wonderful diversity of mankind to emanate from one type. And why was Adam created last of all beings? To teach him humility; for if he be overbearing, let him remember that the little fly preceded him in the order of creation.[28]
The Jewish Publication Society's edition of Leviticus states:
Thou shalt not hate thy brother, in thy heart; thou shalt surely rebuke thy neighbour, and not bear sin because of him. 18 Thou shalt not take vengeance, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people, but thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself: I am the LORD.[31]
This Torah verse represents one of several versions of the Golden Rule, which itself appears in various forms, positive and negative. It is the earliest written version of that concept in a positive form.[32]
At the turn of the eras, the Jewish rabbis were discussing the scope of the meaning of Leviticus 19:18 and 19:34 extensively:
The stranger who resides with you shall be to you as one of your citizens; you shall love him as yourself, for you were strangers in the land of Egypt: I the LORD am your God.
— Leviticus 19:34[33]
Commentators summed up foreigners (= Samaritans), proselytes (= 'strangers who resides with you')[34] or Jews.[35] to the scope of the meaning.
On the verse, "Love your fellow as yourself", the classic commentator Rashi quotes from Torat Kohanim, an early Midrashic text regarding the famous dictum of Rabbi Akiva: "Love your fellow as yourself – Rabbi Akiva says this is a great principle of the Torah."[36]
Israel's postal service quoted from the previous Leviticus verse when it commemorated the Universal Declaration of Human Rights on a 1958 postage stamp.[37]
Christianity
The "Golden Rule" of Leviticus 19:18 was quoted by Jesus of Nazareth[38] during his Sermon on the Mount and described by him as the second great commandment. The common English phrasing is "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you". A similar form of the phrase appeared in a Catholic catechism around 1567 (certainly in the reprint of 1583).[39] The Golden Rule is stated positively numerous times in the Old Testament: "Thou shalt not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people, but thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself: I am the LORD."[40]. See also Great Commandment) and Leviticus 19:34: "But treat them just as you treat your own citizens. Love foreigners as you love yourselves, because you were foreigners one time in Egypt. I am the Lord your God.".[41]
The Old Testament Deuterocanonical books of Tobit and Sirach, accepted as part of the Scriptural canon by Catholic Church, Eastern Orthodoxy, and the Non-Chalcedonian Churches, express a negative form of the golden rule:
"Do to no one what you yourself dislike."
— Tobit 4:15
"Recognize that your neighbor feels as you do, and keep in mind your own dislikes."
— Sirach 31:15
Two passages in the New Testament quote Jesus of Nazareth espousing the positive form of the Golden rule:
Do to others what you want them to do to you. This is the meaning of the law of Moses and the teaching of the prophets.
And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.
— Luke 6:31[42]
A similar passage, a parallel to the Great Commandment, is Luke 10:25.[43]
Behold, a certain lawyer stood up and tested him, saying, "Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?"
He said to him, "What is written in the law? How do you read it?"
He answered, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind; and love your neighbor as yourself."
He said to him, "You have answered correctly. Do this, and you will live."
The passage in the book of Luke then continues with Jesus answering the question, "Who is my neighbor?", by telling the parable of the Good Samaritan, which John Wesley interprets as meaning that "your neighbor" is anyone in need.[44]
Jesus' teaching goes beyond the negative formulation of not doing what one would not like done to themselves, to the positive formulation of actively doing good to another that, if the situations were reversed, one would desire that the other would do for them. This formulation, as indicated in the parable of the Good Samaritan, emphasizes the needs for positive action that brings benefit to another, not simply restraining oneself from negative activities that hurt another.[45]
In one passage of the New Testament, Paul the Apostle refers to the golden rule:
For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
— Galatians 5:14[46]
St. Paul also comments on the golden rule in the book of Romans:
"The commandments, 'You shall not commit adultery,’ 'You shall not murder,’ 'You shall not steal,’ 'You shall not covet,’ and whatever other command there may be, are summed up in this one command: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'”[47]
Islam
The Arabian peninsula was known to not practice the golden rule prior to the advent of Islam. According to Th. Emil Homerin: "Pre-Islamic Arabs regarded the survival of the tribe, as most essential and to be ensured by the ancient rite of blood vengeance."[48] Homerin goes on to say:
Similar examples of the golden rule are found in the hadith of the prophet Muhammad. The hadith recount what the prophet is believed to have said and done, and traditionally Muslims regard the hadith as second to only the Qur'an as a guide to correct belief and action.[49]
From the hadith, the collected oral and written accounts of Muhammad and his teachings during his lifetime:
A Bedouin came to the prophet, grabbed the stirrup of his camel and said: O the messenger of God! Teach me something to go to heaven with it. Prophet said: "As you would have people do to you, do to them; and what you dislike to be done to you, don't do to them. Now let the stirrup go!" [This maxim is enough for you; go and act in accordance with it!]"
— Kitab al-Kafi, vol. 2, p. 146
None of you [truly] believes until he wishes for his brother what he wishes for himself.
— An-Nawawi's Forty Hadith 13 (p. 56)[50]
Seek for mankind that of which you are desirous for yourself, that you may be a believer.
— Sukhanan-i-Muhammad (Teheran, 1938)[51]
That which you want for yourself, seek for mankind.[51]
The most righteous person is the one who consents for other people what he consents for himself, and who dislikes for them what he dislikes for himself.[51]
Ali ibn Abi Talib (4th Caliph in Sunni Islam, and first Imam in Shia Islam) says:
O' my child, make yourself the measure (for dealings) between you and others. Thus, you should desire for others what you desire for yourself and hate for others what you hate for yourself. Do not oppress as you do not like to be oppressed. Do good to others as you would like good to be done to you. Regard bad for yourself whatever you regard bad for others. Accept that (treatment) from others which you would like others to accept from you... Do not say to others what you do not like to be said to you.
— Nahjul Balaghah, Letter 31[52]
Baháʼí Faith
The writings of the Baháʼí Faith encourage everyone to treat others as they would treat themselves and even prefer others over oneself:
O SON OF MAN! Deny not My servant should he ask anything from thee, for his face is My face; be then abashed before Me.
Blessed is he who preferreth his brother before himself.
And if thine eyes be turned towards justice, choose thou for thy neighbour that which thou choosest for thyself.
Ascribe not to any soul that which thou wouldst not have ascribed to thee, and say not that which thou doest not.
Indian religions
Hinduism
One should never do that to another which one regards as injurious to one’s own self. This, in brief, is the rule of dharma. Other behavior is due to selfish desires.
By making dharma your main focus, treat others as you treat yourself[62]
Also,
श्रूयतां धर्मसर्वस्वं श्रुत्वा चाप्यवधार्यताम्।
आत्मनः प्रतिकूलानि परेषां न समाचरेत्।।If the entire Dharma can be said in a few words, then it is—that which is unfavorable to us, do not do that to others.
— Padmapuraana, shrushti 19/357–358
Buddhism
Buddha (Siddhartha Gautama, c. 623–543 BCE)[63][64] made this principle one of the cornerstones of his ethics in the 6th century BCE. It occurs in many places and in many forms throughout the Tripitaka.
Comparing oneself to others in such terms as "Just as I am so are they, just as they are so am I," he should neither kill nor cause others to kill.
— Sutta Nipata 705
One who, while himself seeking happiness, oppresses with violence other beings who also desire happiness, will not attain happiness hereafter.
— Dhammapada 10. Violence
Hurt not others in ways that you yourself would find hurtful.
— Udanavarga 5:18
Putting oneself in the place of another, one should not kill nor cause another to kill.[65]
Jainism
The Golden Rule is paramount in the Jainist philosophy and can be seen in the doctrines of Ahimsa and Karma. As part of the prohibition of causing any living beings to suffer, Jainism forbids inflicting upon others what is harmful to oneself.
The following lines from the Acaranga Sutra sums up the philosophy of Jainism:
Nothing which breathes, which exists, which lives, or which has essence or potential of life, should be destroyed or ruled over, or subjugated, or harmed, or denied of its essence or potential. In support of this Truth, I ask you a question – "Is sorrow or pain desirable to you ?" If you say "yes it is", it would be a lie. If you say, "No, It is not" you will be expressing the truth. Just as sorrow or pain is not desirable to you, so it is to all which breathe, exist, live or have any essence of life. To you and all, it is undesirable, and painful, and repugnant.[66]
A man should wander about treating all creatures as he himself would be treated.
— Sutrakritanga, 1.11.33
In happiness and suffering, in joy and grief, we should regard all creatures as we regard our own self.
— Lord Mahavira, 24th Tirthankara
Sikhism
Precious like jewels are the minds of all. To hurt them is not at all good. If thou desirest thy Beloved, then hurt thou not anyone's heart.
— Guru Arjan Dev Ji 259, Guru Granth Sahib
Chinese religions
Confucianism
- 己所不欲，勿施於人。
- "What you do not wish for yourself, do not do to others."
- 子貢問曰：「有一言而可以終身行之者乎？」子曰：「其恕乎！己所不欲，勿施於人。」
- Zi gong (a disciple of Confucius) asked: "Is there any one word that could guide a person throughout life?"
The Master replied: "How about 'shu' [reciprocity]: never impose on others what you would not choose for yourself?"- --Confucius, Analects XV.24, tr. David Hinton (another translation is in the online Chinese Text Project)[67]
The same idea is also presented in V.12 and VI.30 of the Analects (c. 500 BCE), which can be found in the online Chinese Text Project. The phraseology differs from the Christian version of the Golden Rule. It does not presume to do anything unto others, but merely to avoid doing what would be harmful. It does not preclude doing good deeds and taking moral positions.
Taoism
The sage has no interest of his own, but takes the interests of the people as his own. He is kind to the kind; he is also kind to the unkind: for Virtue is kind. He is faithful to the faithful; he is also faithful to the unfaithful: for Virtue is faithful.
— Tao Te Ching, Chapter 49
Regard your neighbor's gain as your own gain, and your neighbor's loss as your own loss.
Mohism
If people regarded other people’s states in the same way that they regard their own, who then would incite their own state to attack that of another? For one would do for others as one would do for oneself. If people regarded other people’s cities in the same way that they regard their own, who then would incite their own city to attack that of another? For one would do for others as one would do for oneself. If people regarded other people’s families in the same way that they regard their own, who then would incite their own family to attack that of another? For one would do for others as one would do for oneself. And so if states and cities do not attack one another and families do not wreak havoc upon and steal from one another, would this be a harm to the world or a benefit? Of course one must say it is a benefit to the world.
Mozi regarded the golden rule as a corollary to the cardinal virtue of impartiality, and encouraged egalitarianism and selflessness in relationships.
Iranian religions
Zoroastrianism
Do not do unto others whatever is injurious to yourself.

New religious movements
Wicca
Here ye these words and heed them well, the words of Dea, thy Mother Goddess, "I command thee thus, O children of the Earth, that that which ye deem harmful unto thyself, the very same shall ye be forbidden from doing unto another, for violence and hatred give rise to the same. My command is thus, that ye shall return all violence and hatred with peacefulness and love, for my Law is love unto all things. Only through love shall ye have peace; yea and verily, only peace and love will cure the world, and subdue all evil."
— The Book of Ways, Devotional Wicca
Scientology
The Way to Happiness expresses the Golden Rule both in its negative/prohibitive form and in its positive form. The negative/prohibitive form is expressed in Precept 19 as:
19. Try not to do things to others that you would not like them to do to you.
The positive form is expressed in Precept 20 as:
20. Try to treat others as you would want them to treat you.

All I'm going to say is that no matter the faith you would want people to hurt you rather than love you and by love I mean not sex as that is always reserved for a special eternal partner but to simply muse and be an absolute delight... That is every faith and every religion as what good are through god in itself is a manifestation of all our sacred wishes...

Welcome to eternal rule...
Religious Texts
Like anything they is always much to be gleaned from religious texts yet when written text gets translated or goes from word of mouth back to text we get this kind of "Chinese whispers affect"
Not though Buddhist any different where the cores or pillars of truth truly matter; like commandments...
Lots would say the ultra ancient Buddhist ritual as they are high up where not many bug exist but you once head shaved are seen to have headlice then they will burn them off with an incense as they will never allow anyone infested with Satan into their monastery as they if infested turn rogue or worse leprosy...
They is lots and lots of research into evil getting a foot hold and things like demonic possession but never forget ritualism as even Muslim burn bodies as quick as possible upon death to stop plague and ritualism is the same that cleanliness ritual is "you get clean" so some rituals lasted as much more than hollow ritual...
Possession and amount of flies present for example... so much all religions share in truth but infested by bug makes people misbehave is always up for debate...
Research
Got loads more on fish to be looking at so possibly going to seaside but enough to be doing research on outside... medicines one thing but looking at a lot of cleansing research and even the bible they would make holy water by dipping a silver cross into it... Then you have anti-microbial silver nano particle keyboards to a silver particle solution to clean tanks... affects on fish though? should be fine I'm sure...
Temped to build a drone but this year really is lots more outdoors walks not yet with laboratory... about right though 3 years putting it all together..

Still picking through curiosity stream though but brilliant and skillshare are assessible enough but a discount for accudemic would be nice... all in good time anyhow as enough to pick through...
Want more on curiosity stream though in truth but as been so busy myself it is nice to see when backlogged by 4 odd years they is plenty just youtube to pick through...
