It is possible to be a soul with a body or to be a body with a soul, depending on the importance one places on the two realms of reality. A person who seeks spiritual prosperity will view the world of employment and financial gain differently from someone who is wholly seeking financial prosperity. The dichotomy becomes work, or activities that are a burden to the soul, and play.
