Another forward to prove our goal is to accept, work for the community after the hectic schedule of the role of the grihastha and face health issues mental and physical as the stage of vanaprstham and move on .it is not easy to die but we can choose how to lead our lives. Nachiketas story is interesting and is a guide for our twilight years. Regards jayshree venkatraman

Vedic Verses A daily collection of verses from the Vedas, Hinduism's revealed scripture Vedic Verses for 10/16/16 O Nachiketa, after pondering well the pleasures that are or seem to be delightful, you have renounced them all. You have not taken the road abounding in wealth, where many men sink. Yajur Veda, Katha Upanishad, Part One, Chapter II, 3 Wide apart and leading to different ends are these two: ignorance and what is known as Knowledge. I regard you, O Nachiketa, to be one who desires Knowledge; for even many pleasures could not tempt you away. Yajur Veda, Katha Upanishad, Part One, Chapter II, 4 Fools dwelling in darkness, but thinking themselves wise and erudite, go round and round, by various tortuous paths, like the blind led by the blind. Yajur Veda, Katha Upanishad, Part One, Chapter II, 5 The Hereafter never reveals itself to a person devoid of discrimination, heedless and perplexed by the delusion of wealth. This world alone exists, he thinks, and there is no other. Again and again he comes under my sway. Yajur Veda, Katha Upanishad, Part One, Chapter II, 6 All creatures, born from you, move round upon you. You carry all that has two legs, three, or four. To you, O Earth, belong the five human races, those mortals upon whom the rising sun sheds the immortal splendor of his rays.
