| Dharma is the occupation of pursuing duty. Such a person says, "These things are not right. The right thing is to do one's duty." Perhaps he is interested in his family, in family duty to mother, father, wife, or children, saying, "This is my virtue"; or in the people, the nation, the poor, or the rich. Whatever he considers his duty he gives his life to. He may be a soldier, a teacher, or a merchant; but he feels justified according to the way he does his duty. The person who is after money thinks he is a fool. The lover thinks he is a fool too. For him the first thing is to convert people to his Church; to do something good for his nation, city, or village. |
