The saint is everywhere where nature prays, and he prays with her and in her.


"We pray, and prayer fashions us.  The saint has himself become prayer, the meeting place of earth and Heaven; he thereby contains the universe, and the universe prays with him.  He is everywhere where nature prays, and he prays with her and in her: in the peaks, which touch the void and eternity; in a flower, which scatters its scent; in the carefree song of a bird."
