Question
I am a nun, but I prefer to devote my life to dance—that is where I really have a blast—and my family, so zazen is becoming more secondary. Does that create bad karma?

Zazen is meant to free people, not imprison them. Fortunately, we are free to do what we want! However, we should not set things against each other. On the contrary, they strengthen and complement one another. At certain times one thing takes precedence; later, the priorities may be different.
