The meaning is: Don't do things to other people, which would be offensive to you if someone else has done it. I.E. if I live in glass house, and someone would throw a stone at me, then the glass would break and I would have to pay a lot of money to fix it, so I shouldn't to the same thing to others and throw stones at people's houses. (Even if the don't live in glass houses, there might be other reasons why it's bad)
The main issue here is, I think, that nothing is certain and if something offensive to you, it may be also offensive to other people for totally different reasons.

The meaning of this is that people with problems shouldn't criticize others.
PEOPLE IN GLASS HOUSES SHOULDN'T THROW STONES - "Those who are vulnerable should not attack others. The proverb has been traced back to Geoffrey Chaucer's 'Troilus and Criseyde' (1385). George Herbert wrote in 1651: 'Whose house is of glass, must not throw stones at another.' This saying is first cited in the United States in 'William & Mary College Quarterly' (1710). Twenty-six later Benjamin Franklin wrote, 'Don't throw stones at your neighbors', if your own windows are glass.' 'To live in a glass house' is used as a figure of speech referring to vulnerability." From "Random House Dictionary of Popular Proverbs and Sayings" (1996) by Gregory Y. Titelman (Random House, New York, 1996).A further counsel bear in mind:If that thy roof be made of glass,It shows small wit to pick up stonesTo pelt the people as they pass.Don Quixote 1605Miguel de Cervantes 1547-1616
The meaning is if you have mistakes do not criticize people in a negative manner over their mistakes. You might think the meaning doesn't relate to the phrase but it does. It relates by saying you shouldn't damage other people or things with stones, when your own house can very easily be destroyed by the stone. The stone in this manner would be your words, and the house is you.
This sounds more difficult than it is. If you live in a glass house ( life of peace which is so fragile ) why would you throw stones ( chaos, negativity, bad attitude, poor life choices, and quite simply having something to hide! ) The hardest life to live is A life of peace in today's world! I hope this Helps! TAG III
