Yoga Sutra 2.42

Samtosad Anuttamah Sukha Labhah


"By contentment, 
supreme joy is gained"


"As a result of contentment, one gains supreme joy. Here we should understand the difference between contentment and satisfaction. Contentment means to just be as we are without going to outside things for happiness. If something comes, we let it come. If not, it doesn't matter. Contentment means neither to like nor dislike."
-Sri Swami Satchidananda
