To take a beating is inner penance. The actions associated with inner penance are called the ‘beating’. The behavior or actions associated (with inner penance) meaning patience with sincerity, focus with integrity, without any antagonistic resistance with profound martyr-like steadfast bearing power in order to cultivate ‘divine impartial composure’.
These all sound like qualities of a person who is totally sincere and moral from the heart and the mind. Those brave, developed and spiritual ones know how to take the inner beatings due to - wisdom, not ignorance. 'They have the ‘sanskar’ to know, within their spiritual self, that by remaining sincere and moral there will be inner beatings but there is a clarity purity and amazingly graceful freedom in living that is unequalled on the other side. The beating is NOT really a beating but more just grinning and bearing the results (internally) knowing that it is all a RESULT.
