In the west, we have created many rights. In the Bagava Gita, it's said that people have only a right to their work (not the fruits of their work) but I think even that reduction doesn't accurately describe the truth. The truth is that people are denied the "right" to work all the time, even in areas where they have been preparing to work. So not only is there no right to the fruits of your labors (even though western fiction says that there is) there is also no right to your labor itself (as usually exists in eastern fiction). The truth is that people have a "right" to only one thing and that is their own will. But what is will? Most people are merely products of their environment. If you put another person of a similar kind into a similar environment, they would come out mostly the same as another person of similar stock. Sometimes a person becomes aware of this and so they "actualize" themselves according to a contrarian (and usually sexual) impulse. These people want to convince themselves that they have a "will" and so they do something stupid like quit their job, or go onto drugs, or become a sexual deviant. In most cases these activities are not evidence of a real "will" but are simply exchanging one set of impulses (the conditioned, taught and circumstantial impulses) for another set of impulses (the animal, instinctive and usually sexual impulses). If real freedom and having a real will are things that exist, they can only possibly arise when a person looks deep inside of themselves, past both the conditioned and the impulsive, to seek insight into what matters to them more than both of those things. This generally requires spiritual, religious and teleological self-examination. Without delving into whether free will exists, it is at a least true that a "differentiated person" who possesses assiduity and confidence is also the kind person who is capable of leading what seems to them like a truly meaningful life.
Even in the west we have only one right. What right is that, we have the right to obey our masters, like any other nation/kingdom. For legislation is being passed right now that goes against our constitution, this illegal, but it doesn't matter to our masters, they will always do as they please, nothing new under the sun, the desires of men have never changed nor will they.
