Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The three-stage ceremony for entrance into religious life generally consists of ritual rejection (symbolizing leaving behind one's former life), ritual death (symbolizing a complete surrender and giving up of self), and ritual rebirth (symbolizing a new life and identity within the religious community). Ritual awakening is not typically part of this ceremony.
