For this project, you will combine methods within your Toolkit in order to study a religious ritual, although the primary method will be participant observation.
Choose a religious group that interests you and attend a service, ceremony, or special event-all of these can be considered rituals as long as they occur within a religious context. You may need to contact a member or leader of the group in order to find out when they meet.
From the beginning to the end of the service, jot down quick notes about what is happening and how the ritual transitions from one activity to another.
Question 1. Does the event open with some sort of invocation? If so, what is it, and what purpose does this serve?
Question 2. During the ritual process, what role does the sacred or supernatural play within the event?
Question 3. Also make note of the space in which the ritual occurred-how is it marked as sacred?
Question 4. As you move through the ritual, how does the action change?
Question 5. What is the demeanor and response of the audience participants and service leaders?
Question 6. How is action accomplished as the ritual proceeds?
