Standing before God
In the second book of the trilogy, page 302, you wrote that standing before God should be changed from an emphasis on prayer to study.
I didn't really understand why. I was convinced that prayers are not answered. That there is a separation between God and nature. Okay. But why not see the prayer of the Rambam and Leibovitz as the great focus of standing before God. Maybe the first level of prayer should be developed and emphasized? (The second level should really be given up.)

Because on the first floor, prayer (the leiyubitzitz) is a mitzvah like any other mitzvah (according to the majority of rabbinical opinions). Its centrality probably stemmed from the assumption that there is an interaction between us and God. If this does not exist, I see no reason for it.
By the way, the discussion is only about requests in prayer. Not about confession or praise.
