AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Is it better to pursue a lower-paying Teaching Career aligned with one’s Inner Truth and passion for English, rather than accepting a high-paying cubicle job that lacks Personal Interest? 👨🏼‍💼🏢🌻👨🏼‍🏫🍵

After much thought, I have decided I’m not suited to a 9-5 cubicle job, and I will not go for it. I’ll pursue a master’s degree in English and pursue a teaching career. Even if I get  30K  a month, I’ll be happy, rather than doing something that doesn’t hold my interest, even for 2 lakhs. 

It is a very good thought, and I am sure She will arrange all that you need. Pursue your deepest inner truth and have faith in Her Grace. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

There is and cannot be any problem for anyone practicing any kind of Sadhana for whatever worldly or other worldly purposes. Each one naturally follows their own line of evolution and that is how it is meant to be. But whatever path is followed, faith will always be in the background, surrender will be a basic requirement and aspiration the moving force or the fire as the Vedic Rishis would say. Rituals and techniques are not purely …
