Mexican Bishops Clarify Liturgical Adaptations for Indigenous Communities - ZENIT - English
“There is no “Mayan rite” or “Mayan Mass””. Mexican bishops need Vatican approvalzenit.org
Interesting.
The statement explicitly clarifies that these adaptations:
Do not establish a “Maya Rite” or a separate liturgical tradition.
Exclude ritual dances, altars reflecting pre-Hispanic symbolism, or practices involving prayers to the cardinal points.
Maintain the priest as the sole presider of the Eucharist.
I believe these were the main things people were complaining about, so if this is the case... it seems like there's not much reason for controversy?
I do wish the article had given a link to the statement by the bishops, though.
