The Reflections of Universal Ethical Rules in East Asian Thought*
Öz
In this paper, I will survey the ethical rules in Abrahamic religions and their re ections on the East Asian thought. Afterwards a discussion of their significance in the contemporary thought will be held. Ten commandments are the first ourishing of ethical rules in the Abrahamic religions. This set of rules kept progressing into a whole system of ethics first in Christianity and then in Islam. Our first observation will be that a major part of the ethical rules in Abrahamic faiths are continuous with those of the East Asian thought. For instance, ethical rules that one can derive from the four noble truths and the noble eightfold path in Buddhism are mostly compatible with the basic universal ethical rules in Judaism, Christianity and Islam. It is thus the aim of our paper to shed some light on the interaction and similarity of ethical rules the in Abrahamic religions and the major religious and philosophical movements in the East Asia.
