Summary/Abstract: People keep their communion with the deceased loved ones, on a religious level, through the acts of worship, present in all nations and in all religions, in various and multiple forms, since always. Based on the belief in the immortality of the soul, the acts of worship related to the separation caused by death have been practiced over time in various forms, even in architectural, cultural, artistic and literary forms. Christian religion associates the belief in the resurrection to that of immortality of the soul, which led to new attitudes and practices related to this separation caused by death, promoting optimism and spiritualization of acts of worship, through “prayer in spirit and in truth” (Jn 4, 24).
