Satisfaction!

Aum Sai Ram

A saint was praying silently. A wealthy merchant, observing the saint's devotion and sincerity, was deeply touched by him. The merchant offered the saint a bag of gold coins. "I know that you will use the money for God's sake. Please take it."

"Just a moment." The saint replied. "I'm not sure if it is lawful for me to take your money. Are you a wealthy man? Do you have more money at home?

"Oh yes. I have at least one thousand gold coins at home," claimed the merchant proudly.

"Do you want a thousand gold coins more? asked the saint.

"Why not, of course yes. Every day I work hard to earn more money."

"And do you wish for yet a thousand gold pieces more beyond that?"

"Certainly. Every day I pray that I may earn more and more money."

The saint pushed the bag of gold coins back to the merchant. "I am sorry, but I cannot take your gold," he said. "A wealthy man cannot take money from a beggar."

"How can you call yourself a wealthy man and me a beggar?" the merchant spluttered.

The saint replied, "I am a wealthy man because I am content with whatever God sends me. You are a beggar, because no matter how much you possess, you are always dissatisfied, and always begging God for more."Same is advocated by Lord Krishna in Srimad Bhagavad Gita. While describing the characteristics of his devotee in chapter 12, verse 14, Krishna says, "Santushta satatam yogi.." i.e My devotee is ever-content or satisfied with whatever he gets.

Desire never gets fulfilled even if it is temporarily satisfied. As, fire consumes offered ghee and increases, desire also increases with consumption. By gratifying the senses no one can ever get satisfied. Look for the spiritual wealth which gives ultimate satisfaction.
