In the Gita, Lord Krishna lists satisfaction as one of the austerities of the mind. (Bg. 17.16)
To achieve satisfaction of the mind, manah-prasadah, one must gradually detach it from thoughts of sense gratification by attaching it to:
1. Thinking about how to do good for others.
2. Satisfying stories and philosophy in the Vedic literatures.
When we allow the mind to think of sense gratification, it becomes disturbed and dissatisfied. When we think about how to best serve Krsna, the mind becomes centered and peaceful.
