Yep, the whole theme of "relative bodhichitta" vs. "absolute bodhichitta". As Ken Wilber puts it 'Ethos follows Eros.' Your style of ethical functioning will be action which follows the "grain" of the evolution of the Kosmos. It's the way we interact so we follow the grain of Kosmos and support others at the same time. If you don't follow that "grain", you're going to get 'carpet burn.'   What is external and changes from time to time and country to country is morality.  Ethics and morality are not the same.  Codes of behavior established by society or religion are thought of as falling into the realm of morality, *not* ethics.
