Abstract
In ritual studies one has to differentiate between staged or ritualized emotions and emotions that are triggered or caused by rituals. This differentiation makes up for the modes of rituals but also for a basic distinction in ritual theory. I will first summarize my understanding of rituals in general and then try to exemplify my argument by referring to ritualised weeping with a special reference to material of Nepalese mourning and marriage rituals.
