iniciacijos ritualas


Explanation:
Šie ritualai (Einweihung, Rites de passage) įveda asmenį į suaugusiųjų pasaulį arba į kokią nors
uždarą bendriją. Pasak Mircea Eliade’s, „Iniciacija – tam tikra ritualų ir pamokymų seka; jų pagalba
įgyvendinami radikalūs įšventinamojo religinės bei socialinės padėties pokyčiai“ (4, p. 751–753).
