Jim, at the locale of the burial place of the heart of Robert the Bruce.
In the middle ages, some people thought that if different parts of your body were buried in different places, there would be the potential for more prayers to be said for you.

My interpretation is that while here at the burial place of the heart of Robert the Bruce, I can say a prayer that the constructive attributes and qualities of Robert be increased in my life and the destructive attributes of him be diminished in my life.
