| description | A belief system is a subpart of the cultural elements of society.
It is divided into a number of types. One type of belief shared
universally is the one relating to the concept of the divine. Even
though this is a universal belief, its practice differs from one
group to another, until it forms a type of identity unique to that
community. This phenomenon also occurs among Malaysian
Indians, where the belief principles and practices relating to the
concept of the divine are unique. This is seen in current study,
based on Malaysian Tamil dramas shown on the Astro Vaanavil
channel. This study will most likely contribute to existing
literature on the belief system of Malaysian Indians relating to
the concept of the divine |
