My very dear Janine,
Thank you very much for your kind letter.

Even if you are at university, you still have to work under people or with people. Working under someone is not necessarily a negative thing. The main thing is if you are able to make your life beneficial for sentient beings and therefore for yourself.

Whether or not you are working under someone is not the problem. If you don’t have the aim to benefit sentient beings, then you miss the goal of your whole life. Even though you think you have a goal, the goal is not good. It is very limited or not a good goal, and that’s always a problem. The problem is you have a goal, but it is not a beneficial goal.

I will pray that your life will be beneficial for sentient beings.

With much love and prayers...
