Abstract

The objective of this pape is to show that there is a spiritual environment ”“ in order to create an ecosystemic framework for the study of a religious community ”“ in its main manifestations. Concepts related to the ecological view of the world, such as “religion” and “spirituality”, are discussed and applied to the analysis of the community of Vale do Amanhecer (Valley of the Dawn). The theoretical support comprizes Piazza (1976), Capra (1991), Couto (2007) and Schamaltz Neto (2017). Whereas the ecolinguistic triad presupposes thre environments, the religious aspect presupposes a simulacrum that enhances the understanding of the spiritual inter-relations among myths, rites and the transitions to the real world of the people.
