Om Swami
What is the purpose of worship and prayer in breaking attachment?
Worship cuts the noose of attachment
We do puja, path and aradhana not to please a God who then hands out rewards, but to be a little free from the noose of moh. Only when the noose is cut will the bird take flight.
We do it so that we can become a little free from that noose of attachment. Only when the noose is cut will the bird fly.
