The communion of saints is the spiritual solidarity which binds together the faithful on earth, the souls in purgatory, and the saints in heaven in the organic unity of the same mystical body under Christ its head, and in a constant interchange of supernatural offices.
XXV, decrees on purgatory; on the invocation, veneration, and relics of saints and of sacred images; on indulgences), is, nevertheless, dogma commonly taught and accepted in the Church.
In that communion there is no loss of individuality, yet such an interdependence that the saints are "members one of another" (Romans 12:5), not only sharing the same blessings (1 Corinthians 12:13) and exchanging good offices (ibid., xii, 25) and prayers (Ephesians 6:18), but also partaking of the same corporate life, for "the whole body.

 Holy Communion
In this realm holy communion also symbolizes the believer's spiritual union with the body of Christ, the church, and by virtue of taking Holy Communion one indicates his support of, and oneness with, the holy church.
Consequently, prior to participating in Holy Communion one is to examine himself, spiritually, to see if he is truly in the faith and is free from sin.
Thus, when brethren join together for the sacred and sacramental act of Holy Communion they should join together in a perfect oneness, both in doctrine and practice, having a faith and conversation that is common in all aspects of life.

This "communion" is based on the "close relationship between the Church's holiness and her unity," the Pope said when receiving in audience today the bishops of the ecclesiastical provinces of Detroit and Cincinnati, at the conclusion of their five-yearly visit to Rome.
Fourth, it "is in major and minor seminaries that the seeds of a spirituality of communion and mission, and of a healthy priesthood are sown," the Holy Father continued.
In sum, to promote this "spirituality of communion and mission," the Pope suggested to the bishops that in the daily exercise of their episcopal ministry they "be builders of communion in personal dialogue and personal encounter with your priests, deacons, men and women religious and the lay faithful of your local Churches."

This is imputed by the Holy Spirit when accompanied by the faith of the believer that he is participating again in the communion with Christ.
The widely held view among Protestants is that the elements of communion, the bread and the cup, are symbols of Christ's body and blood, thus the view that neither the Corinthian passagenor any other Scripture supports the literal-body view.

 Confessions of a Recovering Choir Director: A Musical Journey through GIRM: § 86-88 - Communion
The receiving of communion was accompanied by congregational music led by the choir/cantor, there was a period for silent prayer, and then all sang a short hymn.
Moreover, given the logistics of the Communion Rite in the Pauline Mass, it's impractical to have the congregation sing strophic hymns (if in fact a goal is to have the congregation sing in procession as well).
If there is no singing, however, the Communion antiphon found in the Missal may be recited either by the faithful, or by some of them, or by a lector.

Oh, to be sure, director Philippe Mora and others will try to claim that Communion aims to be an unbiased film that allows the viewer to make his or her own judgments, but if they actually believe this claim, then they are seriously deluded.
He is, without question, perfectly cast, though whether his performance affirms the viewer’s belief or disbelief in Strieber’s sanity or veracity will be predetermined by the viewer's own prejudices before the disc even starts to spin.
For one thing, the screenplay adaptation of the “Communion” book is done by Whitley Strieber himself - hardly an unbiased scenarist, all things considered.
