Abstract:

Initiation rituals that prepare individual to move from one stage of life to the next, are all mythological. Initiation includes physical, mental and psychological dimensions and is associated with rituals that intend to help the individual to cope with his new responsibility in society. In all religions there are different rituals for the stage of initiation, which are in line with individual growth or acceptance of a new position. This research, which is based on library studies and has been done in a descriptive-analytical manner, analyzes the initiation rituals of different cultures. By examining the mentioned types of ceremonies such as puberty, travel, spiritual death, sacrifice, etc., in Avesta and comparing them with world examples, it was determined that the stages of transition exist in all religious and non-religious professions and drinks and their analysis shows common points with other cultures.
