Christ spoke in parables so it is difficult do say anything definite but it looks like it possibly could be a mindfulness ritual to remember the teachings of Christ and the potential of Christ is inside everyone... like every one is a Buddha.

Your question asks if there is "anything analogous." In my experience, the tsok feast fits that bill. Sharing the food gifts that were offered leads to a similar virtuous and calm mind, with feelings of gratitude and appreciation of community.

Chod practice. It is a practice of offering one's body and blood.
