	Darshan and the Significance of Deity Worship
		Deities, called murtis in Sanskrit, are an important part of Vedic temples and the Vedic tradition, but what is the significance of Deities and Deity worship?
		Worshiping the Deity of the Supreme and using one’s senses in the process of bhakti-yoga, devotional service to the Supreme, provides a means for one’s true essential spiritual nature to unfold.
		At that stage, you may view the Deity, but the Deity also gazes at you, and then there is a spiritual exchange wherein the Deity begins to reveal His personality to you.

		DEITIES AND DEMIGODS is split into three distinct sections - creating gods, a list of different pantheons and a section on new spells and rules for ascension.
		Once again the name of the game is playability and usefulness, with much of the chaff from the original DEITIES AND DEMIGODS (later titled LEGENDS AND LORE) omitted in favor of more rules and less gods.

		It was a nice epic arc, and in the end the PCs did wind up getting enough of the right major artifacts in place to give Keldor his ritual a chance of success.
		Of course I thought that while cliche, the big battle that the PCs had to fight to keep the enemies (a motley mix of strange bedfellows to be sure, from CG Valkyries to two demons) at bay long enough for Keldor to get his ritual done.
		Basically, the PCs create Deities as player characters, and through the GM, work out their own creation, and the creation of the world.

		Sure, if there really is a method to the madness of assigning and generating the deities abilities scores, then there are several that are off (and dont follow the pattern that most do).
		I've noticed that not all the deity statistics are technically correct according to the rules.
		Presumably, there should be paragraphs in all of these examples saying something like "Deity X has access to ability Y even though it is normally not possible according to the rules", but they all got cut due to space constraints.
