Hindu Life Cycle

The Hindu Life Cycle applied to a Friend I choose the four stages of the Hindu life cycle, Caturashrama, to apply to my paper because it closely relates to the life story of my interviewee. Mr. Daniel Garcia came to the United States from Cuba in 1965 at age 26. His migration to the United States cut his educational goal short when he was trying to complete the 1st stage of the life cycle, the student stage. “…showed first 75 words of 1020 total…

…showed last 75 words of 1020 total…see his grandchildren twice a year. A lonely pair of souls if you ask me. In many ways Mr. Garcia is already living the last stage of the life cycle because he has very few attachments to other people and is living in a somewhat remote area of California. I would not call him a total renunciant but he is quickly approaching that stage. Perhaps going back to his homeland will complete the fourth stage.
