Pythagoreanism is a term used for the religious and metaphysical beliefs held by Pythagoras and his followers. It was strongly influenced by mathematics and probably an important inspiration for Plato and platonism. The Pythagoreans were philosophers who believed that all things are essentially numeric, but Pythagorean thought was also profoundly mystical.
Most scholars believe that the Pythagorean idea of the transmigration of the soul is too central to have been added by a later follower of Pythagoras. The notion of transmigration of souls is probably why Pythagoreans were strict vegetarians.
Pythagoras founded a religious and philosophical community in Croton, known as the Pythagorean sect. They believed in the concept of metempsychosis (reincarnation), the sacredness of numbers, and the pursuit of spiritual purification through mathematics and ethics. The group also followed a strict set of rules and rituals.
Another word for religious group could be "faith community" or "religious organization."
A group of religious people is often referred to as a congregation, parish, assembly, or community.
Pythagoras' religious beliefs were associated with Pythagoreanism, a philosophical and religious movement he founded that focused on the idea of numbers and the soul's immortality. The followers of Pythagoreanism followed a strict code of conduct and believed in the transmigration of souls.
One religious group that came to the new world were the Pilgrims, who arrived in Plymouth, Massachusetts in 1620 seeking religious freedom. Another group were the Puritans, who settled in Massachusetts Bay in the early 1600s to establish a religious community based on their beliefs.
