FWIW, in SBAL, he specifies three sources of such codification: the scriptures of one's religion, the laws of the land, and the views of one's elders. These are what he recommends consulting when one is unsure about the right thing to do. But this is while one is still en route to enlightenment. Once one has attained realization, purportedly the small self is no longer making such decisions; they're dictated by Nature. Then the question arises, might Nature's dictates ever go against the codifications, for reasons that may be entirely inscrutable, even to the realized person?
