Thanks for the insights everyone! I suppose in the case that working on my passion and enlightenment can be synonymous, how do I know my passion isn't ego driven? I guess my main fear is that once the ego is totally released, there's a good chance that I'll find that my passion was grounded in that ego and want to release that too. Can you create even create a passion that is enlightenmentproof?

Should I seek enlightenment before working towards a passion? I've been on the path of searching for my passion since school about 5 years ago. But, as my values change with my development so does what I want to do in life, ending in much tail chasing. If I seek a passion what if I find it meaningless once I pursue and obtain enlightenment?
