Historically speaking, in the traditional Indian culture, a human life span is one hundred years. In
ancient India, life span of one hundred years was divided into four stages: life of a student,
householder, forest dweller and ascetic. There was a gradual move from personal, social to
spiritual preoccupations with age. A mature and ageing man would gradually give up his
worldly pursuits, move away from the mundane routine of householder and turn inward in search
of spiritual growth. Finally, when he was spiritually ready, he would renounce the world
completely and enter the stage of ‘Samnyasa’ or asceticism.
