	Encyclopedia :: encyclopedia : Holy See (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-22)
		Although the Holy See is closely associated with the State of the Vatican City, the independent, sovereign state governed by the Holy See, the two entities are separate and distinct.
		The Holy See administers the Vatican City, including all diplomatic functions; foreign embassies are accredited to the Holy See rather than to the Vatican City, and the Holy See establishes diplomatic agreements ("Concordats") with other sovereign states, on behalf both of itself and of the Vatican City (as appropriate).
		Because the Holy See comprises more than simply the Pontificate, it does not dissolve upon the death or resignation of the reigning Pope; in contrast, the heads of the dicasteries of the Roman Curia (such as the prefects of congregations) cease to hold office immediately upon the Pope's death.

		Similarly self-inflicted wounds can be associated with certain mental illnesses.

		and culminating in the Middle Ages, resulted in a division of major holy orders (episcopacy, priesthood, diaconate, and subdiaconate) and minor orders (acolyte, exorcist, lector, and doorkeeper), with a special rite of introduction into the clerical state called tonsure.
		From the late Middle Ages, the minor orders and the major orders of subdiaconate and diaconate were largely ceremonial, considered steps to priestly ordination, and were taken by those who intended to be ordained to the priesthood.
		In 1972 tonsure, minor orders, and subdiaconate were abolished, and a rite of admission to candidacy to the diaconate and priesthood took their place.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: The Five Sacred Wounds
		Mechtilde and St. Gertrude of Helfta were devoted to the Holy Wounds, the latter saint reciting daily a prayer in honour of the 5466 wounds, which, according to a medieval tradition, were inflicted on Jesus during His Passion.

	Deus Filius
		The earliest record of the devotion to the Sacred Heart is from the 11th and 12th centuries.
		Recognizing the link between the love of Christ, symbolized by the heart, and the wound in Christ's side, the devotion to the Sacred Heart was a natural extension.
		With the release of the revised Roman Missal in March 2002, the feast was restored as an optional memorial on January 3.
