They were praying focusing on God in Heaven. Looking up at the other Realm. And two dead from the past appear whilst Jesus `fades` away. You wonder how they did not get the message about the passage from earthly life to Heaven and then back to life. As the Holy Spirit like when he descended on Mary. Alas -the disciples Peter included they were fast asleep and woke up only to see Jesus in his full glory-they saw him transfigured but missed the actual transfiguration process.

It happened about
eight days after these sayings, that he took with him Peter, John, and
James, and went up onto the mountain to pray. As he was praying, the appearance
of his face was altered, and his clothing became white and dazzling.
Behold, two men were
talking with him, who were Moses and Elijah, who appeared in glory, and spoke
of his departure, which he was about to accomplish at
Jerusalem.
Now Peter and those
who were with him were heavy with sleep, but when they were fully awake,
they saw his glory, and the two men who stood with him. It happened, as they were parting
from him, that Peter said to Jesus, "Master, it is good for us to be
here. Let's make three tents: one for you, and one for Moses, and one for
Elijah," not knowing what he said.
While he said these
things, a cloud came and overshadowed them, and they were afraid as they
entered into the cloud. A
voice came out of the cloud, saying, "This is my beloved Son. Listen
to him!" When the
voice came, Jesus was found alone. They were silent, and told no one in
those days any of the things which they had seen.
