"Maharishi Mahesh Yogi had a plan to start teaching the people at sixteen . . ."

Well, now, we can teach even a child, without waiting for sixteen. We can teach even . . . today this boy's wife has not come. We have got a little child, his daughter, only one and a half years. She's also learning how to offer, bow down, how to eat kṛṣṇa-prasādam, how to clap during kīrtana. There is no question of waiting for sixteen years. That is artificial. That is artificial. Why one should . . .? Who knows?

Who will live up to sixteen years? Begin immediately. Begin immediately. You have got this chance of human form of life. That is the duty of the father and mother. "All right, here is a child. Let him take a little prasādam." All right. Little beginning. And it is simple. Why one should wait for sixteen years or sixteen or thirty-two years? No, there is no waiting. Immediately.
