AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Currently I am pursuing my Masters of Science in Information Technology (Msc.I.T) and this is my last semester, so it will be completed nearly by May. But I am little bit confused about what should I do further. There are many corporate job options but I don’t feel so good about it (Maybe it is my disliking). I am quite inclined towards the teaching field, but it is a very responsible field and I doubt that will I be able to do it perfectly and sincerely?🗺️💼📈🧑‍💼

I like to explain things and also to understand and learn complex concepts in a simple way. Plus I love academia, since school I always loved studying. But in the corporate it feels like I will just be coding in a corner without being able to do anything innovative or new. And as I said, there is an inclination to the teaching field, but I have self-doubts about it that whether I will be able to do it properly or not. Our work is the thing we are going to do all our life, and that is why I feel that it should not be a burden on us.

Can you please help me out Alok Da, about what should I do?

It is obvious that Corporate Sector is not for you. Perfection, sincerity etc can be developed but interest is something intrinsic. So best would be to go by your innate temperament, Swadharma which is learning, teaching, which will allow you inner satisfaction as well as creative growth. Corporate will stifle you and leave less and less time to read Sri Aurobindo and The Mother plus the psychological environment in the Corporate World is generally not conducive to inner growth. This is what I would suggest.

Affectionately,

Alok Da

The vital generally acts under the impulsion of desire and its children ambition, fear, and the rest.
