Today is Day 4 of Dashlakhshan Parv : Uttam Shauch This day celebrates Uttam Shauch meaning Supreme Contenment/Purity Shloka: धरि हिरदै सन्तोष, करहु तपस्या देह सों । शौच सदा निर्दोष, धरम बढो संसार में ॥ Meaning: We should be content in our heart and should work hard from our bodies. Contentment is always pure and its a great Dharma in this world. Whereas contentment is always supreme, on the other hand greed is called the originator of all evils. Greed/Desire are very pain/sorrow causing whereas a content person always gains happiness. Just as body’s dirt can be cleaned from the water, the dirt of our soul can be cleaned by being content, well charactered, hard working and by true knowledge and concentration. How can we call a person clean who is though clean from outside but is all dirty from inside. On the contrary a Sage though being dirty from outside is all pure because of his bunch of good qualities that everyone strives for. Such a Sage has supreme purity. We should all try to be as content as possible as there is no end of desires.
