Death means the termination of the life of an individual along with its biological functions. It is one of the indispensable aspects of many traditions and organizations and is an important feature of every culture and civilization in the world. In common parlance death refers to the moment at which life ends and one of the difficult tasks of defining death is to distinguish it from the life of an individual. When a death occurs to an individual, it requires drawing precise conceptual boundaries between life and death. The life of an individual is defined on the basis of consciousness and when consciousness ceases, a person is said to have died. Death has an integral relationship with religion, especially with rites and rituals through which the departed soul is appeased with the intervention of the supernatural. In every society, there are certain customs related to death as well as the disposal of the corpse which reflect the parochial belief system associated with the event. In this paper, an attempt has been made to examine the pattern of disposal of death, integral religious rites, and rituals among the Tengapania Deoris of Assam.展开更多

The"flurrying"of great expectations opens the door of initiation for Pip. In the light of the initiation theory, this thesis analyzes three stages the protagonist Pip undergoes changing from an innocent child to a mature adult.展开更多

This relationship is also manifested in the relationship between Taoist rites and agriculture: the Taoist rites have obvious awareness of stressing the agriculture; holding of Taoist rites,gods worshiped in rites,offerings used,and grain consumed are connected with the agriculture; many actions in rites have nature of imitating the agriculture. The concept of " quietness" and " cleanness" in rites can cultivate the awareness of farmers for respecting the agriculture.展开更多

We aimed to estimate the current prevalence as well as the socio-cultural beliefs and power relations that are in favor of or against the practice in Kajiado, Kenya. Methods: A mixed method cross-sectional study was conducted in Kajiado County. The study targeted: women of reproductive age (15 to 49 years);community health volunteers (CHVs);opinion leaders;health care workers;officials from the ministries of Education, Health, Culture, Gender and Social Services;Community Health Assistants (CHAs);Traditional Birth Attendants (TBAs);teachers;morans and adolescent boys and girls aged 10 to 24 years. Data were collected both quantitatively through a household questionnaire and qualitatively through the focus group discussions and key informant interviews. Factors influencing Female Genital Mutilation/Cutting (FGM/C) were classified as either social, cultural beliefs or economic. Results: From the study, quantitative results revealed that the prevalence of FGM/C in Kajiado County was 91%, with most of them (96.7%) practicing type 2 (excision) circumcisions. From the interviews, girls undergo the cut as a rite of passage to womanhood and thus a prerequisite for marriage. It is also believed that girls who are uncircumcised cannot be helped by TBAs in delivery. It is believed that their blood is poisonous and can cause bad omen to whoever comes in contact with dirty blood. Additionally, it is believed that girls go through the cut to avoid conflict and natural phenomena;for instance, drought and outbreaks of diseases that kill many people. Finally, it is a practice that earns respect for the parents of the girls and incentives as dowry to the father of the girl. TBAs that perform FGM/C get paid in cash and kind. Conclusion: Female genital mutilation/cutting practice in Kajiado County is still high. Efforts to end the practice will need to have an integrated approach to include all the players. Suggested alternatives to the cut must, therefore, be inclusive so as to address the myths/beliefs, misconceptions, socio-cultural and economic factors in favor of the vice. The alternatives must be inclusive for the beneficiaries, supporters, and practitioners.展开更多
