Non a caso, la prima unzione che ogni cristiano riceve nel sacramento del Battesimo – l’unzione catecumenale – è senza alcun profumo e annuncia simbolicamente che la vita è una lotta. Infatti, nell’antichità, i lottatori, prima della gara, venivano completamente unti, sia per tonificare i muscoli, sia per rendere il corpo sfuggente alla presa dell’avversario.
