→Titikṣā
Tapas means literally heat, afterwards any kind of energism, askesis, austerity of conscious force acting upon itself or its object. <ref>https://incarnateword.in/sabcl/18/the-origin-of-the-ignorance#p17</ref>
==TapasyaTapasyā ==
When the will and energy are concentrated and used to control the mind, vital and physical and change them or bring down the higher consciousness or for any other yogic purpose or high purpose, that is called tapasyā. <ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwsa/29/surrender#p71</ref>
==Titikṣā==
Titikṣā is the bearing firmly of all contacts pleasant or unpleasant, not being overpowered by that which is painful, not being carried away by that which is pleasant. Calmly and firmly to receive both and hold and bear them as one who is stronger, greater, vaster than any attack of the world, is the attitude of ''titikṣā''.<ref>https://incarnateword.in/sabcl/27/shanti-chatushtayashantichatushtaya#p9</ref/>
The facing, enduring and conquest of all shocks of existence. <ref>https://incarnateword.in/cwsa/21/delight-of-existence-the-solution#p15</ref>
==Trance==
Samadhi or Yogic trance retires to increasing depths according as it draws farther and farther away from the normal or waking state and enters into degrees of consciousness less and less communicable to the waking mind, less and less ready to receive a summons from the waking world. Beyond a certain point the trance becomes complete and it is then almost or quite impossible to awaken or call back the soul that has receded into them; it can only come back by its own will or at most by a violent shock of physical appeal dangerous to the system owing to the abrupt upheaval of return. There are said to be supreme states of trance in which the soul persisting for too long a time cannot return; for it loses its hold on the cord which binds it to the consciousness of life, and the body is left, maintained indeed in its set position, not dead by dissolution, but incapable of recovering the ensouled life which had inhabited it. <ref>https://incarnateword.in/cwsa/23/samadhi#p4</ref>
==Transcendent==
The Transcendent, the Supracosmic is absolute and free in Itself beyond Time and Space and beyond the conceptual opposites of finite and infinite. But in cosmos It uses Its liberty of self-formation, Its Maya, to make a scheme of Itself in the complementary terms of unity and multiplicity, and this multiple unity It establishes in the three conditions of the subconscient, the conscient and the superconscient. For actually we see that the Many objectivised in form in our material universe start with a subconscious unity which expresses itself openly enough in cosmic action and cosmic substance, but of which they are not themselves superficially aware.<ref>https://incarnateword.in/cwsa/21/the-destiny-of-the-individual#p16</ref>
==Transcendent Mother==
Divine Mother, that is, independent of her creation. She may have been conceived, formed (whatever you like) for the creation, with the purpose of creation, but she had to exist before the creation to be able to create. That is the transcendent aspect, and note that this transcendent aspect is permanent.<ref>https://incarnateword.in/cwm/04/7-may-1951#p10</ref>
==Transformation==
Transformation is the change by which all the elements, and all the movements of the being become ready to manifest the supramental Truth.<ref>https://incarnateword.in/cwm/15/transformation-and-the-parts-of-the-being#p22</ref>
Mind, vital, physical are properly instruments for the soul and spirit; when they work for themselves then they produce ignorant and imperfect things—if they can be made into conscious instruments of the psychic and the spirit, then they get their own diviner fulfilment; that is the idea contained in what we call transformation in this yoga.<ref>https://incarnateword.in/sabcl/23/human-relationships-in-yoga-i#p47</ref>
==Trāṭak==
Concentrating the vision on a single point or object—preferably a luminous object.<ref>https://incarnateword.in/sabcl/23/visions-and-symbols-i#p23</ref>
This gazing on a flame or a bright spot is the traditional means used by yogis for concentration or for awakening of the inner consciousness and vision.<ref>https://incarnateword.in/sabcl/23/visions-and-symbols-iii#p18</ref>
==Trimārga==
The triple path of Knowledge, Devotion and Works.<ref>https://incarnateword.in/sabcl/20/the-four-aids#p39</ref>
==Trust==
The feeling of sure expectation of another’s help and reliance on his word, character etc.<ref>https://incarnateword.in/cwsa/29/faith#p8</ref>
Trust is the mind‘s and heart‘s complete reliance on the Divine and its guidance and protection.<ref>https://incarnateword.in/cwsa/29/faith#p3</ref>
==Truth==
An inherent imperative truth of things unseen by us capable of manifold manifestation. This inherent Truth governs automatically all the processes in the universe. The Supramental cognition of things would see the one Truth everywhere. The One is the fundamental truth of existence. <ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwsa/21/indeterminates-cosmic-determinations-and-the-indeterminable#p6,p18</ref>
==Truth Consciousness==
The Truth-Consciousness is the foundation of the superconscient, the nature of which is the Bliss.
It is to that highest existence that those arise out of this physical consciousness. <ref>https://incarnateword.in/sabcl/10/brihaspati-power-of-the-soul#p29</ref>
