From Akhand-Jyoti
The essence of sádhaná is self-discipline. The deities we worship are in fact the symbolic representatives of our own covert indwelling divine attributes. So long as these attributes are dormant, we live in a miserable state, but when the divine nature is awakened and activated, we realize that we are repositories of supernormal energies (riddhi and siddhi). The sole aim of sádhaná is to activate these dormant attributes through a focused and dedicated process of self-refinement and self-transcendence.
