"As you progress with your sadhana you may find it necessary to change
your occupation. Or you may find that it is only necessary to change the
way in which you perform your current occupation in order to bring it
into line with your new understanding of how it all is. The more
conscious that a being becomes, the more he can use any occupation as a
vehicle for spreading light.
The next true being of Buddha-nature that you meet may appear as a bus
driver, a doctor, a weaver, an insurance salesperson, a musician, a
chef, a teacher, or any of the thousands of roles that are required in a
complex societyâthe many parts of Christâs body. You will know them
because the simple dance that may transpire between youâsuch as handing
them change as you board the busâwill strengthen in you the faith in the
divinity of humans. Itâs as simple as that."
