Discussion Post #2:
“Revitalization” is a powerful concept that address the cultural, social, and subjective problems many people experience when confronted with a dysfunctional and/or unsatisfying world. Many NRMs tend to share the goal of revitalization. Considering the Branch Davidian and Hare Krishna movements, why do you believe (based on readings and lectures) that people join these groups? In your view, where does conversion to these fall along the continuum between the crisis of maturation and the seeking of mature religious options? Please illustrate your answer with examples from the readings.
