Fastest way to be closer to God

Hey it's Don and Dawn again and here's another interesting story. 

It's a story of the Italian poet Dante Alighieri, who was deeply immersed in meditation during a church service, and he failed to kneel at the appropriate moment. 

His enemies hurried to the bishop and demanded that Dante be punished for his sacrilege. 

Dante defended himself by saying... 

"If those who accuse me had had their eyes and minds on God, as I had, they too would have failed to notice events around them, and they most certainly would not have noticed what I was doing." 

End of story. 

How about you?
