Acharya Prashant: If one is living rightly, then youth is the permanent state of one's mind. The body can grow old. The mind cannot grow old if one has lived rightly. Youth, that way is your default state.

The 'Atma' has no age; it is ageless; the mind has the right age—one age—the right age of the mind is twenty-five. The mind must be twenty-five forever. And the body, its age changes every moment. The age of the body changes with the clock. But the age of the mind should get frozen at one point: twenty-five; twenty-five forever.

Questioner: Eighteen till I die.

Acharya Prashant: Eighteen till I die, that kind of a thing.

Questioner: I am sure you discussed this before but what are the components of this right living that you were talking about, that will keep the mind forever young.

Acharya Prashant: All that we have talked of: inquiry, fearlessness, love, compassion, discipline, surrender, love for freedom. If one has been living that way, then mentally one never grows old, never. You will be young even when you are ninety. And this that I am saying is not an idea.
