What did Jesus state as the primary purpose of the temple, and how might this apply to today?

Jesus stated that the primary purpose of the temple is praying to God, speaking to God, telling one's secrets to God.

The temple was burned and ruined by fires in later years. But new temples were built up by Jesus' body and blood, that is, our bodies and hearts. We are the temples to carry the Holy Spirit, inside which Jesus would teach us daily. And we pray to Jesus in Spirit and in truth.

How would you respond if Jesus asked you, "What do you want me to do?"
