It is found that Sad?rasantosa means the satisfaction in one's own wife or the contentment only with one's wife which matches with the third principle of five doctrine, that is, K?masa?vara and is opposite of the third principle of five precepts, that is, K?mesumicch?c?r?. Sad?rasantosa is the principle for the householder or the virtue of the married couple. Husband and wife who live their lives in such contentment will have no quarrel or dispute which is the cause of divorce taken as the collapse of family institution. The married couple with contentment in one's own partner will have happiness as everyone has contentment in one's own lover. The husband has contentment in his wife and the wife has contentment in her husband, so they live together happily. Sad?rasantosa is said to be one of the noble practices in Buddhism which means that the practice of Sad?rasantosa is reckoned as highest in Buddhism. The objective of this Sad?rasantosa is to create stability to the family institution for the household laity. It is to prevent damage which occurs from violation of someone's right in married life. It is the principle that supports peace for the people in society. Sad?rasantosa helps creating stability in the family implies that it makes the people live together in happiness physically and mentally.
