In Worship Centers
The Pathis and the Nizhal Thangals are considered as the primary centers propagating Ayyavazhi teachings, apart from the religious status and relations to each other. Also these centers in common are the grounds where the theoritical ideas of the scriptures being practised, though the Nizhal Thangals rather than the Pathis have their own limits. Besides those ritual there is a lot of phenomenological inclusions and exclusions in those centers directly and indirectly.

Famous quotes containing the words worship and/or centers:
“If worship have kept me, I had not gone.
If wit might have me saved, I needed not fear.”
—Sir Thomas More (1478–1535)
“But look what we have built ... low-income projects that become worse centers of delinquency, vandalism and general social hopelessness than the slums they were supposed to replace.... Cultural centers that are unable to support a good bookstore. Civic centers that are avoided by everyone but bums.... Promenades that go from no place to nowhere and have no promenaders. Expressways that eviscerate great cities. This is not the rebuilding of cities. This is the sacking of cities.”
—Jane Jacobs (b. 1916)
