The assumption refers to the idea that Mary went to heaven in her physical body.
Pope Pius XII stated:
“The Immaculate Mother of God, the ever-Virgin Mary, having completed the course of her earthly life, was assumed body and soul into heavenly glory.”
The feast, or celebration of this 'event' takes place around August 15.
The New Catholic Encyclopedia states:
“There is no explicit reference to the Assumption in the Bible.”
Its quite crazy when you stop and reason.
Astronauts must wear spacesuits, but Mary can go to heaven 'body and soul' in her street clothes.
