AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

I am working as a teacher in a CBSE school. I am not able to be very sincere in my work. Many ideas come to my mind to teach children, but not able to put them into practice. I am not able to concentrate in any work I am doing and hence not able to finish it on time. And thereby don’t get time to prepare the lessons the way I want. Please guide me.

It often happens that as we grow in consciousness things that interested us in the past do not seem so interesting anymore. Besides one gets caught in the routine of life and the varied challenges it brings that were not there when one was studying and the field of work chosen. Over a period of time the work itself becomes routine and mechanical and is unable to engage us anymore.

It also happens that we experience a need for transition and change during middle age. It is like a new window of opportunity that opens for us.

The way to go forward is to reinvent and reorient yourself. Try to find out things that interested you but which you could not pursue. Take them up again. Spend some time in self discovery. Read more, travel if possible,  explore the deeper spiritual dimension of life.

As to the work, try to find new ways taking advantage of the discoveries that have taken place, apply creative ways of teaching. Essentially it is the need for progress and change that you seem to be experiencing. Heed to it. Move towards the future with courage and faith.

Affectionately,

Alok da.

Alok da, You get many questions over here regarding dreams. I am always bit perplexed on the question whether one should even bother with them and be conscious of them and note them down or utterly not bother and be ignorant of them? What’s their place in practice of this yoga? I remember reading a little bit of the western psychological theory about dreams activating those contents which we were avoiding and should be doing consciously in our wakeful life, for example there was this case of a woman who was continuously dreaming of a woman who was a living a wandering adventurous life but she in her actual life was living a life of infantile dependence on her parents and not having the adventurous courage of launching herself into the uncertain challenges of life. How true is this observation?

Dreams are a large chunk of our life given the time we spend in dreaming. Hence a study of dreams, and eventually becoming conscious of them and mastering them is surely something gained and won back from the realms of the unconscious…
