THE FIVE PRECEPTS五戒（五种对自己的大害）五戒是佛教信徒的基本道德准则五戒是自愿执行的，而不是来自神的诫命从本质上讲，这些戒律能促进与人和谐，减少自己与他人之间的痛苦灾难冲突等最基础性的道德原则就是：不害和有益The Five Precepts are basic ethical guidelines for the followers of Buddhism. They are undertaken voluntarily, rather than as commandments from a god. Essentially, these precepts promote harmony and reduce suffering between ourselves and others.
