I am new to Zen and I believe they say that there is no right or wrong, only the judgement of right or wrong. Via the cultural or social norms.

On the flip side, there is the precept of limiting, avoiding, or removing sexual misconduct. (Depends on which school of thought I think.) I suspect this is a way of not identifying with the body or its desires. Again I'm new so are my interpretations.

Maybe the Rocking Chair test will be of help? Imagine your 90 years old in a rocking chair, and how you'd feel if you did or didn't do each Path?

Whatever you decide and we send you love and wish you luck!
