- Abstract
The article is devoted to the question of social and cultural functions of a ritual. The analyses of rituals and customs of the past and present show the growing meaning of rituals in human life. The author comes to the conclusion that a ritual, let it be traditional or spontaneous, practiced by thousands of people or by an individual, sacral or ordinary, supports personal consciousness of participation in the over-personal creating and organizing the world.
