Sati - self-immolation. All sAdhanA aims at sati. The ego-self had to be immolated so that the true Self be revealed.
Import: The PurANas speak of the story of Sati, consort of Shiva, who was the daughter of Daksha and who immolated herself when her father insulted Shiva. The allegory is revealed in meditation.
