•   understanding and interpreting the law;
•   mastering legal briefs;
•   conducting research in relevant points of law;
•   writing opinions and interpretations
•   counseling solicitors and other professionals;
•   preparing cases for court,
•   holding client conferences and preparing legal arguments;
•   presenting arguments at the court;
•   examining and cross-examining witnesses;
•   advising on matters of law and evidence;
•   drafting legal documents;
•   negotiating settlements and so on 
Those who worship the natural elements enter darkness (Air, Water, Fire, etc.). Those who worship sambhuti sink deeper in darkness. [Yajurveda 40:9]; Sambhuti means created things, for example table, chair, idol, etc.
