In Tantra there is a shloka-UTTAMO BRAHMA SADBHAV MADHYAMA DHYAN DHARANA,JAPASTUTISYADADHAMA MURTIPUJADHADHAMA.It literally means-feeling oneself as Brahman is best,meditating is mediocre,chanting and prayers are lower and idol worshiping is lowest in nature. As i understand this shloka,it just describes the four stages to God realisation.On spiritual path one starts with idol worshipping,then he starts chanting some mantra,then meditating and at last he feels that he/she has become God.That is Brahma sadbhav.One can't just leap to that stage. No stage is superior or inferior.They are just stages through which a seeker passes.Without going through the first stage,if one will just try to be in Samadhi, s/he won't get any real success.If you have not gone through idol worshiping you won't be able to realize the formlessness of God.You will just become a hypocrite.Like followers of some religions who say they don't believe in idol worshipin
