achieved a lot; now be introvert, be a mate of your soul. Now embark on a journey where you are cut off from all your senses of outward knowledge and you go within to discover your true self. In this journey you will discover that the source of True and infinite Happiness (ananda) is our soul and we have no use of our external senses to find real happiness. This enlightenment helps us to appreciate nature and accept the state of old age." We were enlightened about this amazing chemistry related to the state of old age.
How will you define the state of old age? - poor vision, hearing impairment, breathing difficulties and fatigue while walking. As we understand, the state of old age is only a sum total of weaknesses and dependencies. The state when you cannot do anything is the state of old age, isn't it? By defining thus, you are insulting old age.
Old age is one such precious asset, that is not acquired by anyone with haste. A beautiful state that can be achieved only after completing at least six decades of our life and after a journey through so many purusharthas, cannot be just devalued lightly. We will have to learn to see the state of old age from some positive angle. Don't think that the state of old age is merely longevity depicted in numbers. Along with it, is the longevity of experience. You should think at least ten times before humiliating an old person with rich experience, by calling him as' or '' as experience is a very valuable asset. Experience can be compared with a beard. The beard does not grow unless you are grown up.
