Comment on Why is it that clasped hands tends to be the norm for praying? 🙏

Jesus -who Christians believe to be God Himself- is described as looking up to Heaven to pray

John 17:1 ESV

When Jesus had spoken these words, he lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, “Father, the hour has come; glorify your Son that the Son may glorify you

He also fell on His face Matthew 26:39 ESV

And going a little farther he fell on his face and prayed, saying, “My Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as you will.”

I don’t think this is biblical in origin
