GLORY OF CONTENTMENT

A contented mind is a continuous feast. A man of contentment is always peaceful. Knowledge of the Self will arise only in a man who is endowed with contentment.
Contentment is the sweet ambrosia to allay all kinds of physical and mental sufferings and tor¬ments. He who is not desirous of what he does not have, who is free from elation and dejection, is said to be a contented man. Glory to such exalted souls!
