"Whatever action is performed by a great man, common men follow in his footsteps. And whatever standards he sets by exemplary acts, all the world pursues." (Bhagavad-gita, 3.21)
It is the Vedic system that after 50 years of life one has to take to Vanaprastha, then take to Sannyasa.
It will be a great pleasure to meet you again, and if possible please join us as soon as possible.
I hope this meets you in good health.
Your ever well-wisher,
A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami
Dr. R.N. Dave,
