If it is not so, then at the least obstacle to one's desire, or at a word said against it, the mind gives way to agitation. Why say so much? If the coffee is not there on time, if they do not see two films a week, if they do not sit in front of the radio morning and evening, and even in many other kinds of petty matters, if their wish is not fulfilled, that day people are deeply discontented and in unrest. Such states cannot be called ‘santuṣṭi’. Whatever happens or does not happen, whether a wish is fulfilled or not, to show equal contentment in both and to experience it: that can be called ‘santuṣṭi’.
