“When I was teaching children I began every day writing this on the blackboard: “Do to others what you would like them to do to you”, telling them how much better the world would be if everybody lived by this rule.”
Thomas Paine, Common Sense

That ditty used to be called “good manners” for every day life.
The spiritual meaning is another animal.
