one must maintain and respect the body and meet one's needs and resposibilities in order to attain enlightenment of Yebula. You know food rent bills etc. I don't see it as taking time away from life studying music I see it as emersing myself in life, the life I want to live, and the universe follows with support for this commitement. Yebula enlightenment isn't a destination or skill level, its a realization of the process of life/music and a true acceptance and joy of that with all the ups and downs.
