Embodiment can be a shared bodily experience.]]> 2023-02-17 10:04:03 UTC https://padlet.com/EverydayReligion/9ajxnbvhe07a52m1/wish/2486151640 https://padlet.com/EverydayReligion/9ajxnbvhe07a52m1/wish/2486152286 2023-02-17 10:04:58 UTC https://padlet.com/EverydayReligion/9ajxnbvhe07a52m1/wish/2486152286 Examples https://padlet.com/EverydayReligion/9ajxnbvhe07a52m1/wish/2486152705 - Sufism, particularly the dance ritual

The materials works as a medium. The materialistic dimension can define what you are able to do as a religious person, since this is linked to capitalism.]]> 2023-02-17 10:09:19 UTC https://padlet.com/EverydayReligion/9ajxnbvhe07a52m1/wish/2486155779 Examples https://padlet.com/EverydayReligion/9ajxnbvhe07a52m1/wish/2486156568 - Korean shamanistic rituals, where fabric is torn apart

Emotions are a very big part of the religious lives and rituals. Using Easter as an example, some of the days have a connotation of sorrow, some of happiness and Christianity in general is based very much on thankfulness. The narrative is connected to emotions.]]> 2023-02-17 10:13:49 UTC https://padlet.com/EverydayReligion/9ajxnbvhe07a52m1/wish/2486158815 "the moral aspects of religious practice is not to argue that there is a coherent moral system somehow behind it all, but it is not to ignore those moral systems, either" https://padlet.com/EverydayReligion/9ajxnbvhe07a52m1/wish/2486158996 2023-02-17 10:14:05 UTC https://padlet.com/EverydayReligion/9ajxnbvhe07a52m1/wish/2486158996 https://padlet.com/EverydayReligion/9ajxnbvhe07a52m1/wish/2486159052  
The narrative creates the way we perceive the religion and the message of the religion. The discourse determines how know-how is passed on to others and next generations. The whole foundation of the religion, determines the values and reality of the people involved. 

The narrative originates from authorities 

An example could be abortion laws in the US, affected by Christian organizations and authorities, where there has been created a narrative about abortion and how it is seen as executing an innocent life. That is the narrative that's being told and preached. 

Another example: Us against them narrative: Shia VS the rest, the narrative of persecution. Ashura/Muharrem
