The role of religion in the lives of modern devotees can take many forms and manifestations. Some people, though religious of mind, choose not to practice any traditional or prescribed rituals, nor take part in any communal religious events. Others may attend weekly services or religious celebrations, or take part in annual holidays and festivities, but keep their involvement to a minimum. For some faithful people, religion is kept in the home, where rituals and practices handed down over generations may triumph over the traditional affects and affairs of the religious sect at large. But for many religious people all over the world and transcending global cultures, religion is a major part of life undertaken not just in the mind and spirit, but also in the home, and especially in one's community. Being a part of a group of likeminded faithful individuals lends social and spiritual support as well as helping to further the cause for religious knowledge and scholarship.
