Shri Lalitha Sahasranamam: Namam 566: Shri Nitya trpta (ōṃ nityatṛptāyai namaḥ)

The Divine Mother is contented eternally or forever. 

Trpta is satisfied or contented. The Divine Mother’s actions say that She is ever contented. Due to fullness within oneself, an individual gets no new desire in his mind. For all universal beings disappointments and happiness happen constantly and continuously. Usually, short-term happiness leads to long term pain. Pain and sorrow often lead towards the Divine Mother and Brahman. All beings are forms of the Divine Mother; they enjoy the pleasures in this universe, however short it may be. Through the Divine Mother ‘s ever contented nature; they attempt to get the opportunity to seek Liberation. 

Enough, they do not need anything more is contentment. The Divine Mother is total Poorna or full self; She does not have shortage for anything. One cannot get contentment with the things that are destroyable; but the Divine Mother is contented as ever with happiness. Any affection or love without any expectation also gives contentment. With such affection if we worship Her, the Divine Mother gets satisfied very much. 

The Divine Mother is contentment in Herself; such eternal contentment is possible for souls in Liberation or Moksha; if there is no desire, it is the contentment state. So, the Divine Mother is Liberation itself. Vyasa says,” Absence of desire is the ultimate happiness.”; that is Liberation. Nitya trpta is one who constantly resides in contentment state.

The Divine Mother is ever contented
