If spirituality comes naturally it is welcome at any stage.. However, with some people, it is an exhibition, with some clever people, it is a source of income, and half-baked inputs often misled the youthful people. In addition, the difficulty with most young persons is that once some they acquire some knowledge, the sense of self-importance swells in geometrical proportions. I am sure we can learn certain things only through mature thinking. There is absolutely no substitute for that. I am not at all referring to the business that some camouflage as religion. There can be many balayogis kumars, Shukabrahmam, and what not. If it is a lucrative business, there is some meaning in it. I can consider it as a means of livelihood. However, it is not service of God, or society or pursuit of spirituality. We see too many professional preachers, professional swamis, saints and savants. If lifestyle management by means of pep talk has grown into a big business, why not religion...?
