In the Medieval and Renaissance periods it was the practice to "genuflect" before the "Monarch". To genuflect before the king was to kneel with your left knee touching the ground. As Catholics of that time, and the present, belive that Jesus is "really present" [ question on what "Real Presence" means would be another question ].It was necessary to distinguish between obesience to the King and the "King of Kings", therefore the practice of genuflecting, wth the right knee touching the floor, came into being, as the Monarch, himself, was obliged to give obesience to the "King of Kings" present in the "Blessed Sacrament" [ the 'hosts' reserved in the tabernacle behind the altar ].
