Vanaprastha ashrama - third stage of life from 50-75 years; retirement from worldly life in order to practise sadhana in relative seclusion ...
Vanaprastha ashrama should make way for sannyasa ashrama. Sannyasa is necessary because it provides an opportunity to give your desires a new direction. It is a turning point.
