Taoism


The wise work diligently
without allegiance to words.
They teach by doing, not by
saying:
are genuinely helpful, not
discriminating: are
positive, not possessive.
They do not proclaim their
accomplishments,
and
because they do not
procalim them,
credit for them can never
be
taken away.

Tao Te Ching 2


Christianity

They do not practice
what they teach.
They tie up heavy burdens,
hard to bear,
and lay them on the
shoulders of others;
but they themselves
are unwilling to
lift a finger to move
them.
They do all their
deeds to be seen by
others.

Matthew 23 3 - 5

Buddhism


It is easy to see the faults
of others,
but your own are
difficult to see.
You carefully sift through
others faults but
you hide your own like
loaded dice.
When you focus
on the faults of
others,
your perceptions soon
become distorted,
increasing your own
imperfections.


Dhammapada 252-253



Islam

Those who believe,
their light will
gleam before them
and on their
right hands -
they will say:
Our Lord, make
perfect for us
out light,
and
grant us protection;
surely you are
Possessor of Power
over all things.

Qur'an  66.8
