I can only speak from my own tradition of TB. There are a great many Rituals and "Rites" that are used to help us along the path.

Yes Karma Yeshe. Some traditions use them as a aid and that is perfectly well when they are an aid. Also chanting after or before meditation helps to give a sense of community and friendship at the meditation hall.
