The purpose was to ensure that the spiritual powers of these rishis should help us live positively and remove negative influences from our lives.

Actually, the respective Kuldevi or Kuldevta is the protector of the family. They are the basic authority in matters related to family and they should be worshipped first and foremost. Any puja is incomplete without first invoking the Kuldevta/Kuldevi.
