Real Contentment Is When You Feel Permanent Gratitude

Paramahamsa Nithyananda, Real Contentment
When you enter into a space where gratitude becomes your meditation, contentment automatically happens. The normal contentment that we all know always comes with a reason. It is related to something that has happened in the outer world that has temporarily put your busy mind to rest, that"s all. When your mind is restful, you say you are contented. Real contentment is not this.

Real contentment is when you feel permanent gratitude towards the benevolence of Existence. Real contentment asks for nothing more. It simply enjoys everything without a reason; it needs no reason. When you reach this state, you will not know what discontentment is all about.

A small story:

A man once went to a doctor and complained of insomnia.

The doctor asked him, “So, you are unable to sleep at all at night?"

The man replied, “I sleep well at night doctor."

The doctor asked, “Then what is the problem?"
