Even while grinding corn and wearing a coarse blanket, one can experience peace if the mind attains contentment. A lofty empire is of no use if one never finds satisfaction. -Guru Arjan Sahib, Guru Granth Sahib, 745
Message: Simple pleasures, contented smiles�
What is better? Living simply with contentment or enjoying imperial luxuries with never-ending cravings?
If we are receptive to the Guru�s wisdom, then we will choose the balanced path which leads to joy.
Rather than trying to acquire unlimited wealth with a dissatisfied mind that keeps on asking for more and more, we should learn to find peace and contentment with our lot.
Etymology: Modified from Sanskrit kambal or kambalikaa (woolen blanket or cloth) ? Pali kambal/kambleeya ? Prakrit ka?bal ? Awadhi kaabree, Assamese/ Gujarati kaamlee; comparable toSindhi kamari and Punjabi kamlee/kamblee (coarse blanket).
