The Body of Christ
Corpus Christi (Latin for Body of Christ) is a Christian feast in honour of the Holy Eucharist. It was originally assigned to the
Thursday following Trinity Sunday, thereby mirroring Holy Thursday, the Thursday of Holy Week, the day on which
Christians commemorate the The Last Supper of Jesus Christ and his apostles, seen as the first Holy Eucharist.
While the institution of the Eucharist is celebrated on Holy Thursday, the joy of what is referred to in Greek as "the Holy Gift"
cannot on that occasion be well expressed, because of the nearness of Good Friday.
This is given as a reason for celebrating the Corpus Christi feast at a different time of year.
Corpus Christi is primarily celebrated by the Roman Catholic Church.

Ritual
A ritual is a set of actions, performed mainly for their symbolic value, which is prescribed by a religion or by the traditions
of a community.
A ritual may be performed at regular intervals, or on specific occasions, or at the discretion of individuals or communities.
It may be performed by a single individual, by a group, or by the entire community; in arbitrary places,
or in places especially reserved for it; either in public, in private, or before specific people.
A ritual may be restricted to a certain subset of the community, and may enable or underscore the passage
between religious or social states.

Forgetting
