Is Gita only for middle aged or older people?

Gita is for people across all age groups. Think of it like this – if you won a lottery of 10 million dollars, when would you like to win it: at age of 20 or at the age of 80 yrs. Undoubtedly, at the age of 20 yrs so that you can effectively use all that winning. Similarly, sooner one gets inculcated into Gita, sooner they can start relaising its benefit, through their lives, instead of learning the hard way – which will anyhow happen.
