I've been trying in the past.
Right now though I'm so enmeshed in worldly chores (mos tof them necesary and unrenounceable) that I'm not being able to dedicate enough time to meditation.

Unfortunately, present day life can be overly busy, I dont' know what to do about it and I see no way out right now, I'm 12 years to retirement. I have no social life beyond these internet fora, I just work  and read science fiction or historical material when I need to relax. I'm playing but just a little. Most regretfully, I'm far away from the Vedic ideal of retirement and prevalent meditation in your fifties.

i'm afraid that Yoganada's view and vedic view of spending later years in meditation-generally- does not fit in well with survival in the present era. It might be sometime till this really becomes a reality but not in our life time.
