The Sumarah sect from Sumoroto Subdistrict, Ponorogo Regency, is one of Indonesia's original religious identities. The modern era has brought in many social problems derived from the shifting of traditional-local values towards Western values. The degradation of ethical and morality codes in the community is one of the huge consequences of this phenomenon. Spiritual practices for Sumarah followers are not limited to carrying out rituals but to achieve a very high goal: a meaningful and happy life. This article examines the concept of happiness for adherents of the Sumarah sect. By using interpretive phenomenological analysis and participatory observation, this study found several important points. First, the prostration of Sumarah or ritual practices carried out by some residents of Sumoroto Subdistrict are an attempt to find a way to happiness.

Third, according to them Sumarah’s adherents, the ritual practices carried out by Sumarah followers not only bring a sense of happiness but also grow the power that becomes psychic and physical energy.
