Wow, this is a fantastic write-up and I am sorry to see there weren't many readers.
I have walked away from a job in which I felt I must keep smaller and in many ways have been pursuing a more truthful and moral existence and what you write here resonates--along with another one of your posts that suggests not eating meat or smoking, preparing the temple.
My greatest difficulty is number three on the no self poster--deny attachment. Perhaps, you could post something that specifically addresses this?
Thanks for your encouraging words,
Kimberly
