成语故事:己所不欲,勿施于人Do unto others as you would have them do unto you

己所不欲,勿施于人

jǐ suǒ bú yù ,wù shī yú rén

Do unto others as you would have them do unto you

The spirit of Confucius is the touchstone for many Chinese people and Chinese philosophy. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you is one of his famous views.

Literal meaning: whatever you wouldn't like to be done to yourself, don't do it to others; do unto others as you would have them do unto you

E.g

己所不欲,勿施于人,你自己不喜欢做家务就不要去强迫你的室友去做.

jǐ suǒ bú yù ,wù shī yú rén ,nǐ zì jǐ bú xǐ huān zuò jiā wù jiù bú yào qù qiáng pò nǐ de shì yǒu qù zuò .

Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. If you don't want to do housework, don't ask your roommates to do it for you.
