Answer
Hello there,
Hope this finds you keeping well. Coming to the answers,
It is never too late to start with the practice of celibacy. However, the best results can be attained further to starting a life of Brahmacharya by the age of 32-34 years at the latest. After this age, the strength and potency of man's vital energy starts gradually deteriorating and going south. One can get on the path of attaining the complete powers and God-realization which follow through life long Brahmacharya through the start of unbroken celibacy during the early 30's. The sooner one starts such Brahmacharya, the better. People embarking upon unbroken celibacy from their teens/20's are poised to enjoy the benefits of Brahmacharya faster and earlier further to vitality being at its zenith at this early stage. So it follows that Brahmacharya is a beautiful mode of life that is to be followed right from the onset of puberty and forever with the sexual fluid being expended for begetting offspring only. Further to such a life with constant God-meditation and prayer, life becomes one special and beautiful journey filled with bliss, contentment, health and joy.
So we don't repeat ourselves and since the methods that can be used for the process of sublimation and transmutation of sexual essence have already been dealt with, I will kindly request you to go through all the 'past answers' with a discerning eye to get a clear understanding.
God bless and have a nice day :-)
