[@ljubicapopovic8811]

What a research! Magnificent!!! A short but very deep study of the influence of ritual on human needs and behavior.

[@veneshajohnson9538]

this is extremely good study...i'm in the process of getting my B.Sc in sociology n i had to take two courses in anthropology n it's always exciting to see my degree come alive :)

[@omondilucas5453]

hi

[@nanettexg]

what did you end up doing with your sociology degree? I'm a sociology major too and I am conflicted!

[@RebeccaRuano]

Preforming rituals increases confidence, removes stress, which allows you to play better, if you believe in it. 14:30 Thank you!

[@ReneeAnon-ebooks-music]

Interesting and well thought out to help me to understand the power of ritual. As a child my family and community experienced many rituals together. Many years later, I have been in a forever search for similar or more enjoyment and power. Nothing else compares.

[@lauramoro8591]

hello, can you somehow tell me what was these rituals you did with your family? i am collecting rituals for a book. :)

[@leafchanginglife4294]

Very well presented. It helped me to learn about the ritual of human society in a better way. Thank you 🙏 speaker

[@user-mk1ju4uj5w]

[@christopherclark3505]

Currently putting myself threw a similar process. This is crazy.

[@irasavvadi8791]

Really fascinating talk, and amazing photos too - Those piercings left me feeling lightheaded!

[@bonniemill7944]

Yeah, I got the same feeling. Amazing what people will do for their religion!

[@irasavvadi8791]

Yeah, crazy, right?

[@twertoninfantschoolnursery988]

Very interesting. Does this explain why TV charity events use clips of individual challenges which viewers experience vicariously to encourage higher donations?

[@ReadingsByJaredPitts]

I was just thinking, "Wow, this could really be used against people..."

[@tifikocku]

[@FreeStyleCrhymeR]

[@gyu7776]

DUDE ME TOO, I WAS LIKE, is this too TMI to comment? BUT SEEMS LIKE I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE

[@canadianloon6433]

Great speaker Interesting topic I think I'll keep my heart rate low thanks. I'm not convinced on Relativism here.

For someone with "Xy" on this surname, he certainly does not like the y-axis.

[@Yikkoofficial]

Even though the smacking of his lips really bothered me- the video itself was very interesting.

[@oritafilms]

bad microphone

[@Snoopy-sd3nv]

Really? For me I liked it idk maybe I’m weird

[@zapfska7390]

I’m just annoyed with the click and smacking coming from his mouth because that nicca is way too sensitive. I can hear the saliva in your mouth sloshing against your tongue and teeth. It completely puts me off.
