Of course. You are at the stage of life when it is natural to inquire into the fundamental questions of life: Who am I? What am I? What am I here to do? What is the meaning of life? etc.

At that age, I was a successful studio musician. Like you, I found the prospect of continuing in that mode of life empty and distressing. Long story short, I found a guru and went to India to serve and learn from him.

Now in my mature years I derive great satisfaction, comfort and peace from what I learned and did. The great questions have been answered. There is no more fear or uncertainty in that regard. I now serve as a teacher for others, and they report similar experiences.

Sure there are lots of phonies in this business, but if you can find someone sincere, skilled and actually Self-realized, the benefits are unparalleled. Good luck.
