The research focuses on &#8220;collective effervescence&#8221;\u2014a powerful sense of connection and transcendence that occurs when people unite in pursuit of a common goal. Studies show that this experience, once primarily associated with religious ceremonies, can reduce stress and depression while enhancing a sense of purpose in life. Koolulam\u2019s events were chosen for their unique ability to create this experience through mass singing, and the study is exploring the long-term impact of participating in these
