We call childhood the period from birth
to puberty. During childhood, so to speak, the foundations on which the whole
building of incarnation will rest are
laid.
Hence, the fundamental importance of
the teachings received by man during that critical stage of life. These should
consist of lessons of the highest moral content and especially of examples of a
brave, noble personality.
After childhood come the teenage years,
in which man is considered neither a minor nor an adult.
Youth begins in puberty and lasts until
maturity. It is the age of reason. when the highest ambitions and ideals are
usually present. And spirituality is not foreign to these ambitions and ideals,
provided man has had the good fortune of absorbing high formative principles.
A nation will always be great as long
as it can depend on its youth. The hopes of elders are permanently focused on
youth.
Youth is followed by maturity. In maturity man enjoys the benefit of experience gained in the previous stages of life. He can be a competent and safe guide, because the sum of knowledge gained by him becomes a valuable asset.
In maturity man reaches his zenith. His
organic cells - especially brain cells - reach their maximum vital power and
allow the spirit to convey its constructive capacity to its fullest.
