→Austerity
A premature and excessive physical austerity, tapasyā, may endanger the process of the sadhana by establishing a disturbance and abnormality of the forces in the different parts of the system. A great energy may pour into the mental and vital parts, but the nerves and the body may be overstrained and lose the strength to support the play of these higher energies.

==Advaita==
Advaita, ''viśiṣṭādvaita'', ''dvaita'' are merely various ways of looking at the relations of the One to the Many, and none of them has the right to monopolise the name Vedanta. Advaita is true, because the Many are only manifestations of the One, ''viśiṣṭādvaita'' is true because ideas are eternal and having manifested, must have manifested before and will manifest again,—the Many are eternal in the One, only they are sometimes manifest and sometimes unmanifest. <ref>http://incarnateword.in/sabcl/03/the-stress-of-the-hidden-spirit#p5</ref>
