At what age would I stop ageing? Now, I suppose. It wouldn't be a very appealing future for me. I have no friends. I have a hard time meeting people to become friends with. I'm actually quite friendly and likeable (so I'm told ) but it's an effort for me to maintain friendships. I (will) have no descendants. The family I have (mine and my husband's), while large, will pass on. The generations coming won't know me. My nieces' and nephews' children, my siblings grandchildren, barely know me now. Some I haven't even met. I will be very much alone. So no, I would not want to live forever in one body. However. Hindu belief is that we do live forever.... it's our ātma, the soul, our real self, that lives forever. Per the Bhagavad Gita, we just discard the old worn body and take on a new one. At some point, however, we are released from the cycle of birth and death in this material existence. That's what I look forward to.
