    Regarding the situation of many Afghan village women. I have read in the news about women who are widowed, forced to leave their country due to war, and have to find a way to earn a livelihood to support themselves and their families as refugees in Pakistan. Many of these women can't find jobs and resort to begging or prostitution. How can they "do the right thing?" Is prostitution wrong livelihood? How can we reflect on this skillfully?

    What do you think about a meditator who visits prostitutes every once in a while? What can you say if you are discussing it with them?

    How can we know what is bad and what is good? For example, a young girl is working as a prostitute. We don't know why she is doing such a job. Maybe forced to do it. Is she bad?
