CONTENTMENT
BACKGROUND
Contentment is a state in which even when subjected to various longings and temptations in day-to-day life, one remains unruffled and satisfied. As explained earlier in our chapter on forgiveness, let it be clearly understood, that contentment is the very basic nature of Soul (Atma). Therefore permitting greediness to arise or becoming greedy is unnatural in spiritual vision, as it gives birth to viciousness and
sorrows.
