Swamiji: Interactional sadhana always aims at focusing your attention to sublimate the impacts of the interactions in your mind then and there, making them always an enrichment for you. Here the tension, attributed to the boss's attitude is, in reality, your own mind's creation. Let the mind think sublimatingly: "I am here for working. Whether my boss vitiates his task of assigning my work, is his concern. Apart from discerning his action, if at all, I should not think and vitiate my mind to suffer unduly. Can I sit over him? Do the employment rules ask me to resist and report? If not, it will be wrong on my part to be resentful.
"While he may show any lack of integrity in his task, I should not be a similar victim. In doing the work assigned to me lies my integrity. By that my experience and skill will only grow, adding to my worth.
"Whomever I work for, my performance adds to my merits. Let me find personal fulfillment by this and not indulge in distractional thinking." In this way, besides performantial fulfillment, you will also be gaining a spiritual enrichment, which will have its unfailing effects. It will impact the scenario in a subtle manner. Wait and see what happens.
Interactional saadhana consists in focusing on your own mind and intelligence to overwhelm any impact from outside, and not allow it to overpower your mind. That will enhance your enrichment every time. Being a process resting upon your own inner personality and harnessing its resources, it will always be unhindered.
The impact may be one of fear, displeasure, resistance, grief or otherwise. Do not go into what kind of impact it is and from where externally it arises. The victim is your mind and the means of deliverance is also within the mind. Look at all problems as 'mind's', and solutions also as 'mind's.
