One who is content and satisfied and who links his activities with the Supreme Personality of Godhead residing in everyone’s heart enjoys transcendental happiness without endeavoring for his livelihood. Where is such happiness for a materialistic man who is impelled by lust and greed and who therefore wanders in all directions with a desire to accumulate wealth?

Translation
Where is the happiness of the desireless, satisfied ātmārāma for a person who runs in all directions with a desire for wealth, out of lust and greed?
