đź’¨ Abstract

The article discusses a centuries-old tradition in the Mexican town of Atlixco, where men walk blindfolded, carrying heavy chains and cactus, symbolizing penance during Good Friday. However, participation has declined in recent years due to a decrease in Catholic faith among younger generations and the physical toll of the practice.
