My Roshi had a really good way of looking at this and many other lifestyles that seemed to cut against the grain of Buddhism. He said it did not matter what one did in their life. Working in wealth in a bank or a corporation, working in death on a battle field, or working in sadness in any number of ways. You were born where you needed to be in order to find your way. Your environment and circumstances have nothing to do with your will to find enlightenment.


That's actually quite eloquent and beautiful.
