The austerities of the body, speech, and mind are influenced by an individual's faith. The purpose of such disciplines is indeed dictated by faith.
If the austerities are supported by Sattva, the person will be self-controlled and not hankering after the results.
Conversely, a person of Rajasic nature performing these austerities ostentatiously will be seeking to earn a name, be honored, and be worshipped.
Such austerities, which are not for the purification of the mind, will be uncertain and transitory. They are only for achieving worldly objectives.
