Should and Should Not's

[Plenum]

under the system of Free Will, everything is permissible in the quest for experience.

we have every right to be Confused, for eg (the law of confusion being an alternate naming of the law of free will).

so by that operation, it is an act of infringement and control to tell someone - "you can't do that', or 'you shouldn't do that" - well because it's well within your 'rights' to experience everything you want to experience. (PROVIDED THE INDIVIDUALS CONCERNED ARE CONSENTING TOO LOL)

16.20 Questioner: It would be unlike an entity fully aware of the knowledge of the Law of One to ever say “Thou shalt not.” Is this correct?

Ra: I am Ra. This is correct.

and we know that religion is full of these prescriptive rules - you can't do this, you can't do that.

but what about the converse side? what about "should rules and expectations"?

are these equally limiting and guilt inducing upon other people? (ie subtely expressing your 'should expectations' on others?)

or are 'should rules' just 'should not' rules expressed in a different way? ie

1) thou shalt not lie
2) thou shalt tell the truth

any difference?

in the end, laws of society and cultural norms strike a balance between cohesive group functioning and individual expectations and freedoms.

but here I am more highlighting the subtle pressures we place on ourselves. Creating expectations of behaviour without truly tracing their source.

there is a reason for many rules for being in place; however, we quite often make rules for ourselves that have no examined basis.
