I am sure you have heard about the hinduic word "Dharma". Dharma is your cause in life.
And basicly Dharma can be divided up and applied to everything in your life: work, hobbies, sex etc.
Everything, it is interesting.
Let's say you are an entrepreneur. What is your Dharma as an entrepreneur? Think about it and then continue reading on....
Your Dharma as an entrepreneur is: To build companies and maximize profits. Nothing else. It does not really matter how you do this. If you fire people to do it, if you sell weapons of mass destructions or whatever. It does not matter. What matters is that you follow your Dharma "build companies and maximize profits".
If you don't, then you have failed your Dharma as a an entrepreneur. The result? Poverty and no success.
The same goes with being a salesman. If you don't maximize sales, you are failing your Dharma as a salesman and should consequently be punished for being bad at it. If you don't sell as an employed salesman you are fired. Simple. Happens everyday.
If you are a soldier your sole Dharma is "to kill in the interest of the nation". It doesn't matter if you like it, that is your purpose.
You get it by now, right?
The same with being married: your Dharma is the marriage vowes and the things the priest says "in sickness and in health, until death do you apart". If you don't follow that Dharma it is pretty obvious what will happen with that marriage.
Sex, if you are hetero, then it would be going against Dharma having sex with guys and vice versa.
If you are a devout religious person, then it is going against Dharma practicing other kinds of religions. The same with politics (helping other political parties to success rather than your own) etc.
Dharma, powerful stuff. Seems to hit you back hard when you break it.
