This research addresses an intersection of philosophy of religion and aesthetics via a theory of religious ritual hermeneutics and aesthetics. Primary attention is paid to a daily religious ritual in Vedic Hinduism (agnihotra, twice daily oblations to Agni) and in Islam (salāt, five daily prayers). Philosophers of religion have long debated the nature of religious experience, yet ritual is rarely discussed. Philosophers of aesthetics have recently developed medium-specific approaches to performative art theory, but religious ritual remains undertreated. Negotiating tensions between five hermeneutic themes influential in contemporary theories of ritual action (rule-following, instrumentalism, self-transformation, morality, and aesthetics), this theory aims to avoid two extremes: "domestication of religious ritual," attributing meaning to unfamiliar religious rituals by reducing them to familiar categories of action, and "alienation of religious ritual," regarding such rituals as only meaningful within that religion, rendering outside interpretation fruitless.
