Santushtata --the Ornament of Brahman Jeevan

Santushtata is contentment . It is one spiritual virtue that one cannot live without and still expect to make any progress. There is no universal rigid norm or standard in which you can set it or confine it. And because it is so broad based, that the matter is so difficult.to understand and assimilate in our day to day Tapaswi life. This quality has to be cultivated, no matter whether it appears logical or not. Since Baba has emphasised it in his teachings we are bound to cultivate it in our Brahman Jeevan. As Anasuya Didi has said in one of her talks, if a person of Brahman Parivar does not possess this quality, it is well nigh impossible for him  to be in any way contact with Baba. Now coming to the point of how one can cultivate this Santushtata, Didi has given one simple method; that we should make a list of all things that we have got so far. The list should be so long,  that this one little item whose absence is making you Asantushta or disgruntled, should in comparison, appear infinitely small. With steady practice, one cultivates a personality of a satisfied, fully Santushta person. Like an ornament, this will give you a new glorious aura, very easily perceptible to all those with whom you will come in contact. Needless to say, this will take you so much closer to Baba..
