How should I approach a deity or idol in a temple?
Approach a deity without a shopping list
A deity is a tool, much as a lens makes the world clear. Do not approach a deity with an "I want to access this, I want to access that" attitude. A properly consecrated deity is consecrated for a specific purpose.
You do not approach a deity with the thought "I want to access this, I want to access that." Some people do that, but it is not the way to go.
