5. What is the name of the holy people associated with the

religion?
Ans: There is no single definition of holiness; there are
dozens, hundreds. But there is one I am particularly fond of:
being holy means getting up immediately every time you fall,
with humility and joy. It doesn't mean never falling into sin. It
means being able to say, 'Yes, Lord, I have fallen a thousand
times. But thanks to you, I have gotten up again, a thousand
and one times.' That's all I like thinking about.
