LEV646 "One should consider well, in communing with the soul, whether he has made the best use of any wealth that he may possess. Has he always done good with it? One should meditate constantly on the many ways in which one man can help another, only doing unto others that which he loves others to do for him. Man should rejoice in the happiness of others and grieve in their sorrow. At all times he should be full of compassion for them, warding off from them to the utmost of his power anything that may injure them. Has it not been said: 'and thou shall love thy neighbor as thyself'?" [this verse. Quotation is from Duties of the Heart (Hovot Ha'levavot, Bahyah Ibn Pakuda]
