But if this is so, it follows that everything else that doesn't lift up the heart to God is not prayer.

The name and appearance might be there, but the essence is missing.
- Martin Luther
Rather than walk about holy places we can thus pause in our thoughts, examine our heart, and visit the wheel promised land.
