Maintaining equanimity in misery is called penance (tapa).

Equanimity means that one does not do abhorrence at the time of abhorrence (generating incidents) and one does not do attachment at the time of attachment (generating incidents).

When attachment does not occur when someone gives flowers and no abhorrence occurs when someone throws stones; that is considered equanimity.

God said to accept whatever circumstances that come along. Circumstance is a natural thing. In it, ‘Do this and don’t do that’- should not be there. Circumstances are a ‘scientific circumstantial evidence’ [‘Vyavasthit’]. You should ‘settle them with equanimity’.

Absence of worldly misery - that is called eternal bliss.

That which cures all worldly miseries, is called ‘Scientific’ Knowledge.
