Excerpt
Excerpt: Once we have disciplined our actions in the world to correspond to our new spiritual view and resolution, we will want to assure that the way we earn our living is also consistent with the rest of our practice. This concern expresses itself in the fourth noble path, Right Livelihood. A person's vocation is so much a representation of their own life energy that we often define a man by his profession. John is a policeman, Joan is a fireman, is the way we describe someone. We do not say John is a person who works as a police man. Somehow John's being has become synonymous with his vocational activity.
