" कायेन्द्रियसिद्धिॅशुद्धिक्षयात् तपसः "

" Kaayendriya siddhih ashuddhi kshyaat tapasah. " 

The body and the senses become strong with tapas. When you fast, you are not pleasing God. You are not ensuring your enlightenment or a passage to heaven. When you fast and do various practices, your body becomes strong. It can withstand great heat and cold. Your resistance power increases. Ashuddhi kshyaa - the impurities are eliminated.

" स्वाध्यायादिष्टदेवतासम्प्रयोगः " 

" Swadhyaaya dishta devata samprayogah. " 

By self-study, swadhyaaya, the devas or divine presence is felt and experienced. By self-study, by observing and by being hollow and empty, you become a channel. You become a part of the divine. You are able to feel the presence of divinity. The angles and devas, which are different forms of your consciousness, start blossoming.

" समाधिसिद्धीरीश्वरप्रणिधानात् " 

" Samaadhi siddhih ishwara pranidhaanaat. "

Samaadhi comes about by one-pointed devotion to the divine.
