There are Midrashim e.g. re: Avaraham  "Q: ...but what about after thee
hurban? A: people will recite the parsha of Karbanos...]

The recitation of Karbanos bizman hazah falls under the rubric [perhaps more
aggadic than halachic, neverthless very real] of un'shalmah parim sefaseinu.

We know there is a gap between Mikra and TSBP re: ayin tachas ayyin
In th case of Korbanos , there is a gap between the pshysical offerings in
the time of the Mikdash and the recitations post-Mikdash.  [Thus the minhag
of reciting Korban Pesach on 14 Nissan. and te Avodah on YK Mussaph]
IOwWthe mitzvos of korbanos still exists but only in the recitation form
just as ayyin tachas Ayyin is only literal in the recitation form but
implemented in Beis Din as only tashlumin.

Why does Mikra write ONEthing and TSBP DO anyother thing entirely?  Rashban
deals with this, and very loosely based upon his point I wil say this:

There is the Physical aspect of DOING Torah and their is the consciousnes
and awareness of Torah.   The literal rectiations are on a a dina dishmay
level but also on a level of mind and imagination [remember Rod Serling?]

Bottom line: in our mind's eye we DO visualize korbanos today w/o performing
them.  Whether this is a Zeicher [or Zecher!] for the original or a real
viable alternative is a bit fuzzy.
