Guest guest Posted February 13, 2006 Report Share Posted February 13, 2006 Dear Srimanji, Namaskar!!! On my name card it says I am, "Gemologist & Designer" - it doesn't say businessman. I am not trained in business. And apart from Sannyasi EVERYONE is in business... otherwise how can anyone support themselves? Teachers are selling knowledge, leaders are selling leadership, everyone has to have a profession. And profession means selling time or goods. I am involved with a precious fashion jewellery company, Astral Gemstone Talismans - http://www.agt-gems.com - establised in 1975. Since last 15 years I am not involved in buying nor selling. I work for AGT as Designer. There are 30 other employees who handle sales, purchases, accounting, etc., business activities. I only engage in PG and design. AGT, the company I work for, only sells fine gems and precious jeweled talismans. Other Sacred items, like Shalagram Shila, Lakshmi conch, etc., we do not sell (although I possess these items for puja); and other sacred items in our Museum are also not for sale because they cannot be scientifically identified, nor easily replaced. AGT is only a "jewellery" company. And I'm in the business of being an employee.
