SB 10.52.31
santusto yarhi varteta
brahmano yena kenacit
ahiyamanah svad dharmat
sa hy asyakhila-kama-dhuk
Translation:
When a brahmana is satisfied with whatever comes his way and does not fall away from his religious duties, those very religious principles become his desire cow, fulfilling all his wishes.
SB 10.52.32
asantusto ’sakrl lokan
apnoty api suresvarah
akiƱcano ’pi santustah
sete sarvanga-vijvarah
Translation:
An unsatisfied brahmana wanders restlessly from one planet to another, even if he becomes King of heaven. But a satisfied brahmana, though he may possess nothing, rests peacefully, all his limbs free of distress.
Purport:
Those who are unsatisfied feel distress throughout their body, becoming subject to many diseases. A satisfied brahmana, however, though he may possess nothing, is peaceful and calm, and there is no distress within his body or mind.
