尊重與包容
佛光星雲 ( 1927~ )

尊重他人的自由，
以奉持五戒代替侵佔掠奪。
尊重生命的價值，
以喜捨布施代替傷生害命。
尊重大眾的所有，
以共享福利代替自私自利。
尊重天地的生機，
以環保護生代替破壞殘殺。

──選自《人間佛教語錄》

Respect the value of life by offering compassion in place of killing.

Respect the possessions of others by promoting sharing in place of selfishness.

Respect nature and protect the environment by practicing conservation instead of destruction.
