People who go on a pilgrimage are called pilgrims; such journeys are religiously motivated, although the term can also be used metaphorically to describe a trip that someone makes to do something that they consider to be extremely important, even if it is not actually religious in nature. All devout Muslims, for example, are religiously obligated to visit the holy city of Mecca, at least once in their lives, so that is a very frequent form of pilgrimage. A Roman Catholic might wish to visit the Vatican as a religious pilgrimage. It is an act of piety for a Hindu to bathe in the waters of the river Ganges. And so forth.
They went on pilgrimages to make sure that God would send them to heaven instead of hell.
A pilgrimage is perceived to be religious in nature, but this is not the only type of pilgrimage, If you are a fanatical fan of anything, movies, auto racing, nature, skiing, surfing, diving, and so on attending an event or visiting these places that are critical to the sport/event/history can be considered a pilgrimage.
to seek a cure or to praise god or to confess a sin
A pilgrimage is a religious journey, and people would often times, and they still do, go on a pilgrimage to hopefully become more religious, to connect with their god(s). Or they might do it to prove their loyalty to their religion.
A pilgrimage can mean any journey that has spiritual aspects not just religious ones.
Many different types of people would go on these religious journeys, including people of Christianity, Judaism, Buddhism, Hinduism, Islam, Sikhism, and Zoroastrianism.
Some humanists may participate in pilgrimage as a cultural or social experience rather than for religious reasons. However, pilgrimage is not a common practice among humanists as it does not align with their non-religious beliefs and principles.
pilgrimage is important to religious people, because they go there to look at places or things to do with their religion. For example, a christian might go on a pilgrimage to Bethlehem, to see where Jesus was born, and walk where Joseph and Mary mayhave walked.
A pilgrimage is a special journey made to some sacred place as a act of religious devotion. People see a pilgrimage as a cure for sick relatives or friends and you of all your sins. People go on pilgrimages to seek inspiration and to show that they are willing to devote themselves to god and to prove that they believe in him and that they love him. I also think that people go on pilgrimages to desire a new perspective, and a change of their mind. People seek ways to reverse the destruction of life on the planet.
because ur going 2 u on a religious journey
holiday is more useless because pilgrimage is better to get closer to god
Travelling to a religious place (a place holy to your religious beliefs) is to go on a pilgrimage.
"pilgrimage" is when people go to a geographical place , that is deemed holy . "Christianity" is a religious ideology , like "Communisim" is a political ideology.......rephrase your question.
they want to get closer to God. a pilgrimage helps people concentrate on god morer than anything else. it also helps them remember all the religious thing that has happened in their life.
