Rumi answered, "Yes, but it is also prayer. It is prayer without the outward form. This outer form of prayer is the body of prayer, since it has a beginning and an ending. Everything that has a beginning and an ending is a body. All words and sounds have a beginning and an end, and therefore, they are form and body. But the inner soul of prayer is unconditional and infinite, and has neither beginning nor end." --- Everyday Zen
