Why young Anakin at the end of the Return of the Jedi

Después que Carlos, y luego tutu, me dijeron que la nueva versión de dvd del retorno del Jedi muestra al final a Anakin joven junto a Obi-Wan y Yoda... me puse a buscar alguna explicación... esto fue lo que conseguí.
Anakin and the path to immortality
Many fans wonder why at the end of Return of the Jedi Anakin apperar togheter Yoda and Obi-Wan having like them survived death or as said in Revenge of the Sith "learned the path to immortality" : Yoda learned it from Qui-Gon after he informed Obi-Wan about his old Master and we know this story; but what about Anakin how he learned it and why he apper in in young aspect? I'll try to explain it

1. "The path to immortality" issue

I think Anakin was able to survive death because he was the Chosen One the one who brought balance to the Force while Yoda and Obi-Wan needed to learn it Anakin already had it : it was part of his destiny : he was conceived by the Force and by the Force he was able to defeat death.

2 The young aspect

I think he appears in the aspect he had when he was still Anakin Skywalker and not Darth Vader when he was Good and not Evil so when the Choosen One fulfilled his destiny by bringing balance to the Force Anakin Skywalker was back and when he joined Yoda and Obi-Wan in the Force he assumed the aspect of Anakin Skywalke the boy he was before turnig to the dark side.
It is a "visual" way to communicate the return of the good that was always present in Anakin to the audience I think.
