Capture the Magic Moment

When I first saw You, with Your smile so tender,
my heart was captured, my Soul surrendered.
I'd spend a lifetime, waiting for the right time.
Now that you are near, the time is here at last(It's Now or Never, Elvis Presley)

The elusive 'enlightenment' is within our reach, but we have to capture it here and now. The invite to capture our heart is always present, as is the mission our Soul surrenders to.
Who would have thought that there is so much spirituality in an old Elvis song! Life puts us in touch with people and missions worth our while, but we have to develop an eye for the spiritual opportunity at hand. 

Sri Ramana Maharshi always used to say, "What is missing at this moment?" When you think about it, mostly our answer happens to be, 'nothing!' Let's keep reminding ourselves that the magic moment at hand is as beautiful as it gets.
