Spiritual Austerity or Tapas

What is Spiritual Austerity? Swamiji, in this track, throws light on this subject saying that whatever a seeker does, it has to be with attention, attunement, sublimation and refinement.

When these are had, the mind changes its quality, it becomes pure. And as the mind becomes pure, the thoughts, responses and reactions become different. They become purer, more and more sublime, more and more divine.
