Re: IS AGE AN ISSUE?!! WHY DISCOURAGE US YOUNGSTERS?
namaste upsy.
You will always have your spiritual abilities acquired in the earlier births to start with. This will be known to you at the right time by personal hints of wisdom.
The point is, most Hindu elders are laukika--worldly, finding no time in their daily routine to read Hindu metaphysical truths, so they tend to discourage others. In fact, in the very first Ashram of Hindu life--brahmachArya--the young student was taught the Vedas, UpaniShads and other Hindu secular literature like KAvyas and NATakas in our old gurukula system, so age is certainly no bar to learn the higher truths.
It's really good that while most young people take to video games, movies and other such entertainment stuff, you want to learn the Hindu metaphysics. The HDF is a good place to interact. Welcome, and keep learning with us by interaction.

To her whose feet are washed by the ocean, who wears the Himalayas as her crown, and is adorned with the gems of rishis and kings, to Mother India, do I bow down in respect.
