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/>

==Typal worlds==
The other worlds are typal worlds, each fixed in its own kind and type and law. Evolution takes place on the earth and therefore the earth is the proper field for progression. The beings of the other worlds do not progress from one world to another. They remain fixed to their own type.<ref>https://incarnateword.in/cwsa/2928/faiththe-descent-of-the-supermind#p8p5</ref>
