I found a few quotes from a websites
* Buddha: "The avaricious do not go to heaven, the foolish to not extol charity. The wise one, however, rejoicing in charity, becomes thereby happy in the beyond." (Dhammapada 13.11)
* Jesus: "If you wish to be perfect, go, sell your possessions, and give the money to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven." (Matthew 19.21)
* Buddha: "Consider others as yourself." (Dhammapada 10.1)
* Jesus: "Do to others as you would have them do to you." (Luke 6.31)
* Buddha: "Let us live most happily, possessing nothing; let us feed on joy, like radiant gods." (Dhammapada 15.4)
* Jesus: "Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God." (Luke 6.20)
* Buddha: "If anyone should give you a blow with his hand, with a stick, or with a knife, you should abandon any desires and utter no evil words." (Majjhima Nikaya 21.6)
* Jesus: "If anyone strikes you on the cheek, offer the other also." (Luke 6.29)
can anyone give me any more similarities?
