About the topic:
There is no other way. Anything else leads to more complication. When you decide to be content, the carpet will seem good, but then you will think that one corner if l pull it this way, it can be made better.
Don't think because there is an army of enemies in your inner space. Your inner space is more intelligent. It will show only one enemy. The moment you accept one enemy you are done. By the time you fight that enemy your great friendly mind is ready with another, by the time you fight that, your great friendly mind will make you finish all thoughts about contentment.
Decide, now you are going to practice, no question of allowing one enemy. I am content from now. Out of that content feeling, I will work.
Contentment is like a huge snow capped mountain, glide in it, the moment you hit a rock go back to the space of contentment.
Use your bio memory to get back to contentment. Your bio memory is very responsible, when you withdraw from your day to day activities, the bio memory feels threatened. It will say, I can't be like this and get back to contentment. Say I am going to move my body only if I am contented, your mind will find some reason, so many people are in worse situations etc. When you put your bio memory in a survival threat, it will support you. Do the self strike. Non co-operation movement with your life, let your bio memory bring you contentment, then it will become a system in you to create chaos in you, that is the only way to find a solution.
