Religion in Majuli is profoundly woven into the fabric of daily life.
* **Neo-Vaishnavism:** The dominant religious practice, a monotheistic offshoot of Hinduism focused on the worship of Lord Krishna/Vishnu through congregational prayers, music, and dance rather than idol worship. The *Sattras* act as the religious and administrative centers of this faith. * **Indigenous Beliefs:** The Mishing and Deori tribes practice their own traditional animistic beliefs and ancestor worship, which harmoniously coexist and often blend with local Hindu practices. * **Places of Worship:** Beyond the famous Sattras, local village prayer halls known as *Namghars* are ubiquitous and serve as community gathering spaces.
