From the Spiritual Diary, September 18, Right Activity: If we are at peace within our beings, we can harmoniously carry on our duties even in the business sphere. We can accomplish admirable things in the world without necessarily clashing with others. After our day's work is over we can retire within to be with God again. Eventually, even in the business world, we can perform all our duties with the full consciousness of God's presence. If we are calm and peaceful, come what may -- success or seeming failure -- we remain even-minded, feeling the certainty that His will is being done. - Rajarsi Janakananda, "Rajarsi Janakananda: A Great Western Yogi"
