तस्माद्दैवोपपन्नेन मुन्यन्नेनापि धर्मवित् ।सन्तुष्टोऽहरह: कुर्यान्नित्यनैमित्तिकी: क्रिया: ॥

tasmād daivopapannena muny-annenāpi dharmavit |
santuṣṭo’har ahaḥ kuryān nitya-naimittikīḥ kriyāḥ ||
(Śrīmad Bhāgavatam: 7.15.11)

“Therefore, one who knows dharma and is contented should perform one’s regular and incidental duties day by day even with the foods of the sages which are obtained by destiny.”

Commentary

(Sārārtha-darśinī-ṭīkā)

“‘Contented’ (santuṣṭo) means never causing violence to living beings.”
