The grace of Dharma works in subtle and mysterious ways throughout our life. John is in commercial real estate sales. He is hardworking and always performs his duties diligently, but as sometimes happens in this business, he went through a dry period. He spent an entire month carrying out his normal activities: lots of cold calls to prospects and visits to potential customers in an attempt to generate new business. All he got were rejections.
John was so depressed that he decided he could use a little vacation and took a trip to Hawaii. Once there, he quickly relaxed at the beach and started to enjoy himself. Within a couple of days, he ran into a fellow traveler who turned out to be a wealthy real estate investor. After all his hard work, and when and where he least expected it, he set up a very profitable deal.
John was puzzled: "All the hard work I did produced no results, yet here I am out playing, with work the furthest thing on my mind, and what do I get? A great client. Maybe working so hard is not healthy for business." What John did not know was that, due to his hard work, the power of Dharma shone its grace upon him as reward for his commitment to duty. Dharma became his protector and liberator. ):
