The work of visiting the temple to pray does not help us if there is absence of the conscious and living awareness of the purpose to visit the temple. It is helpful only if we have conscious awareness of the purpose. We pray for half an hour and forget Him for the rest of the day. Even if there is some effect it is minimal. We divide the time and in the process encourage hypocrisy. So behaving like this does not bear the fruits. Sadhana will be successful only if we have the awareness of the purpose all the time.
