Spiritual practice
Sadhana (Spiritual practice) has two aspects, one the abhyas (one's own practice) and the other the Master's help. Abhyas is meant only for creating inner conditions, which will be helpful to the abhyasi (aspirant) in attracting the flow of the Divine grace, and this involves one's self-effort. But self-effort alone is not sufficient. It must be supplemented by the Master's support.
As a matter of fact what we really stand in need of for our ultimate purpose is only Divine grace. But owing to one's inner complexities, it is almost beyond the capacity of a sadhaka (Disciple who practices a sadhana) to have it by himself. For that reason Master's help is indispensable. In earlier stages Divine grace flows into the abhyasi only through the medium of the Master. As such it is often interpreted as Master's grace.
