Apr 4, 2018 at 18:04 comment added user1195 Hindu tapasya is inadequately translated into English as penance. Tapasya literally means burning. Through specific practices, you burn for the object of your desire and attain it. Oxford dictionary gives the Xtian meaning of penance and it is called prayascitta karma in Hinduism.
