This vid answered so many questions about my opioid addiction. I never felt like I received condemnation from God over this problem. And, I'm now almost a decade into spiritual awakening and the fact that I was battling an addiction kept me more humble. Even now it helps to stop the judgement wheel from turning. Thank you brother
Thank you for making this video. Honestly I've been struggling thinking about this a lot because I want to quit vaping now that I have a 8-month-old son. I'm going to start dipping until I can fully quit. I was needing to hear this cuz I've been beating myself up for taking so long. Much love brother 🙏 keep up the inspiring work.
I used dip to stop my smoking and ended up using it for 6 years. I am very health conscience and the feeling in my lungs kept me from running hard, so smoking had to go. The dip was o.k. until it started affecting my joints. For me I had to be very uncomfortable till I could let it go.
@@teddyleandre ive been a food addict since a since tbh, but pmo definitely was the one for me in this life thats been hardest to quit. im just getting better just went on my longest streak ever, and now i’ve eliminated all access to p0rn so im officially done
@@anotheryoutubeaccount8122 Respect 👌🏾 God knows how hard it is to quit PMO, it took me a long time to finaly be able to quit and im done too. Just 1 month and a half but time flies quick and im definitely done ! You gave me a boots to keep going. Thanks for your comment🙌🏾
A person who admitted to having ADHD and some mental illnesses tried to tell me my career choice wouldn't work because It didn't work for them when they were in a similar situation to mine. The person knew nothing about me. It's crazy how people think everyone is exactly like them and have no clue that their assumptions come from them.
Right,. We can only offer our perspective. No cookie cutter lives. I found taking my Myers-Briggs personality test helped a lot into understanding who I was.
I have been sober for 10 years while I was concuring my KARMA but once I concered it and I was at a spiritual level that I could almost remain I needed alcahol to defend all the negative voices I was hearing verbaly and through my head, so dont worry if you are addicted to something, we are all addicted to food, to water, and to air, until we are not. Once you figure out how to live like GOD, without food, water, and oxygen you become GOD. This is an alchemical process that you have to be sure of because once you do it either you live or you die, that is the purpose you have to have to SAVE. And also know when is the time. IT'S COMING.
Great video! This one is a familiar topic for me. Gaining compassion for my self really helped drop the unneeded personal issues. I am green sober for 7 years. 😉💚
Addiction to the ego is the root of all addiction. We have identified with that dream avatar to the degree that we believe it’s who we actually are. So much so that our survival instinct becomes so intrinsically entwined that we defend it as if it were our actual lives, even at the cost of other’s or even our own lives. All this despite that the writing is often on the wall even in our expressions. For example: self image - how can the universe of a human being be contained within an image? Such notions are a form of idolatry, yet we rarely notice the obvious.
I´m addicted to your videos haha! Your content is helping me in very profound ways. You talk from the being, thats quite rare thing today, you just clip out a lot of struggle with the communion of the word plus the balance of frequency, as you say on the end of the video. This video blowed my mind. Cheers from argentina
Great points. The path has many twists and turns and no one way appears superior. We are all addicted to air. haha I myself have kicked chew tobacco a few years ago. Used it for 6 years. I would still use it, but it stopped serving me. Was causing more harm than good.
My persona is a wanker, smoker, thinker, know it all, gamer and cofee drinker. Stopped weed and bozze and pain meds abuse. Working on the rest :) Smoked since 6 years old, gonna be a blast
Last year Ive tried to smoke some weed, just to break from a very 'rigid' beliefs. Like, i thought this is some strong drug, and i never went into that kind of stuff. And for the first few times it was kinda fun, a few times later i understood that I'd better sit alone in silence and meditate, and a few times after that - I started to really appreciate the non-altered mental state. The clarity, purity of the mind that is non-altered by anything... wow, weed if fun, but it dims your light. a lot. U can have my weed 😆anyway, I'm addicted to other things like we all are
A friend of mines dad used to grow fresh tobacco in there backyard and it was really nice to smoke almost hits you like weed with the strong herbal smoke. I'd only be able to take a few drags before being satisfied. It was a really nice experience. 🙂
The topics you bring up and the clarity that you bring them up are so on point, so relatable. I use rapé from time to time to help me balance myself. This helped me not to judge myself for that and to be authentic to where I'm at in this journey.
It's funny that this video pops up. I was just thinking about whether or not I wanted to quit drinking. It's not something I'm seriously into just yet but I'm trying to be more conscious of the choices I make in my life. And all of a sudden this video pops up! Thank you so much, from the bottom of my heart.
Great wisdom Yash. I quit vaping and smoking weed cold turkey 5 months ago. My lungs and life were getting jacked up. I like the dualistic nature of your opinions, which is truly accurate based on Anekantevada. Many sided multiplicity. 10,000 things, one essence. Each person is unique on their own path.🙏
Did your lungs heal? I'm having issues, I'm 49. Been smoking for 30 years, but this new stuff is powerful. The vapes have you coughing from the belly, which hurts my lower back. Flower makes you caugh in the chest area. The pot is wicked strong. I suspect much of the dispensary crap has mold. 3 types of mold in pot can kill us.
@@GregtheGrey6969 yeah it's possible, I think similar. I'm 39. The weed now is way stronger. I quit getting high and vaping altogether. It was ffffuckin me up. Feel great now. I just drink a glass or two of wine and burn incense now cuz a love the smell and sight of smoke lol.
About 10 mins in, with you all the way, a thought came in when you saisd 'we're all addicted to something' and the thought is, yes because life is (about) relationship its the quality of relation to anything is the, whats the word...essence, the opportunity to be present, and i guess any habit that wears us down could be said to be having an addictive action upon us, thanks man, just rambling with ya, big love.
About living your best version... Lorie Ladd said in her video yesterday, there is nothing you need to heal or fix about yourself. Do not listen to others trying to tell you what you need to change or need to take. Since everyone is trying to sell you work shops, retreats, coachings or vitamins etc.
Very well said, all elements can be used constructively, everything expresses the need to evolve and balance out all frequencies. There are no good or bad addictions when we resonate with the inneself and the experience of life. I used to smoke weed for 16 years helped me that period of my life, used to trip out with psychedelic recreational substances helped me that period of my life, used to eat meat, used to have sexual relationships, everything helped me to become who I am and learn deeply my purpose. Humble we accept the blessings, and we keep going on, without prejudice others or judging ourselves fiercely. Compassion is the key to understand, everything happend for a reason, for us to learn evolve and sculp the presence, the existence. Thank you for the valuable efforts and knowledge. Oasis in the dessert.
Hapé has helped me a lot. It grounds me very well (especially blends from the Huni Kuin tribe), plus no allergy problems every spring and fall like I used to have.
Nothing I threw at myself stopped an awakening, maybe some slowing of things but no amount of alcohol, drugs, smoking, sex, eating, hard partying, fast cars, stress, excitement and lack of sleep actually prevented an awakening (don't like this term). Maybe if one didn't go to extremes then perhaps the initial awakening could have been somewhat smoother, but the spirit is powerful
I love the recognition that regardless of where we are in our development, we are currently expressing the best version of ourselves. Thank you. Beating our selves up for not being at the level we presume we should be at just keeps us down. Funny how it works that way. It’s almost (or actually) as if there is something within us that’s acting against us.
For the past 11 years I have been on a massive spuritual journey (oftentimes not of my own choice). Absolutely enjoying the learning to know that I just don't know. So many times of clarity appearing out of nowhere. And now listening to your wise words and realising so much more. Thank you for letting me travel this journey alongside you Yash ❤
Well my first comment wasn't right with title because i said what awoken me most was quitting the addiction i had for drugs because after friend died and i realized it was leading me to never ending hell too keep using was an awakening for me..... But i do believe you can be addicted to like maybe a little bit of weed or even beer because i have a friend that drinks like a beer or two a day and this guy is definitely has some kind of spiritual Enlightenment.... So it doesn't always block it different strokes for different folks i would say...
This was the best explanation of balance and discernment I've heard from you so far. Always found your points on it helpful. This one really laid it all out
I have come to a similar conclusion as to what you're saying in this video through my own experiences. However, one thing I want to add is that discerning whether something is helping or hurting you can be very difficult. For example, when I used to substances it would often be the case that a substance would start off beneficial but over time it would change to the negative. However, discerning exactly when it crossed this line would be difficult even if I was being honest with myself. When you add in the fact that as you become dependent on a substance your thinking can get clouded it's very easy to miss the fact that it's no longer having a beneficial effect, especially because you've lost the bases for comparison since you know longer know what life would be like without it.
Good video. Hope I’m not riff raff. Said life is a story w/ lessons not a game that others must get to the top & be winner at on one of your other vids. I do have a channel I speak to stuff like this on. No diss was meant. Appreciate yer content mate. It was just my exp. All the best on this long pathway u walk. Keep up your good work. I will be at Satasang at some point. ✌️
@whocares9439 who cares, haha 😄 apparently there was a guy called Jesus he did and look what happened to him, true distraction by being busy entertainment shopping s e x drugs and rocken roll ,work and the endless pursuit of more
Thanks for smoothing that over, I’m not a fan of tobacco even mopocho , also didn’t care for blown tobacco either maybe a lil yopo mixed in some nunu during the ayahuasca but even then a hit of mimosa hostillis would be better but I don’t recommend that too anyone.
I was talking about that with myself yesterday I had informations about tobacco I don't know where I collected them but funny to see that there is no boundary between people everything is just one
Wanna know what helps addiction guilt? Knowing EVERYONE is adducted to distraction, and use various things to achieve that. We....are...all...addicts. Dopamine, Oxytocin, Serotonin, Endorphins Get your D.O.S E of distraction!!!! Lololol Addiction is MUCH MUCH bigger than most think.
I'm a week in using those On pouches to stop ciggies. I only use about 5 x 4mg pouches a day. Lungs are feeling better, clothes dont stink, wife is happy. Those little pouches can help. I quit booze a while ago with the help of kratom. I dropped kratom and it wasn't a big deal.
Yeah be careful with kratom brother, I'm a recovering h addict I cannot get away from the kratom. Struggling so hard, I'm glad you could step away. I quit vaping and now I'm in the rogue pouches, better than valing but still hookedto something. Progress over perfection
@jacoberwin4412 this full moon and partial eclipse is a great opportunity to release those habits that don't serve you. I honestly didn't find it too hard to give up Kratom. CIGS were harder. Good luck pal! And congratulations on getting past H! That's a big step.
Alan Watts is always getting attacked for his drinking and smoking. And when asked about it he answered ,My philosophy is not concerned with what should be but what is’ haha Osho got it as well and defended him. I am right now 6 months without weed to which I was addicted. But honestly I am thinking a lot about going back to it.
Excellent talk, thanks, needed that! Ya, apparently it’s not even the nicotine in tobacco that’s addictive but the chemicals they put in the cigarettes, intentionally. Also, it’s coming out that nicotine can help treat covid symptoms. Wild…. Good teaching, thx.
Makes ya wonder why tobacco has been attacked by the government for decades. I heard about tobacco/covid at the start of the great hoax. Ever look into the fentanyl/covid connection?
CURING KARMIC DEPTS is the only way to awaken, however for the ones that are awakened have to help if asked, you have to be curious as a child and STUDY anything that makes you go hmmm.
My friend used to say I don't have a drug problem I have a money problem.. This is actually way deep as if we all lived indigenously with access to our local plants and medicines we'd basically be high all day everyday.. and not addicted as such as the problems the west has with drug use is due to the cost and availability.. limited availability and high price leads to behaviour seen as destructive such as theft , etc etc . With unlimited supply and for free people would just use as and when required.. but the wests restrictions cause the user to be paranoid and in a constant state of desperation in case their supply ends.. remove this and addictive patterns go. I've lived with the Akha hill tribe people of Asia and there they say when your young you have sex, then when you have kids you go work in the rice field when your kids have kids you smoke opium.. thus Grandmother sits in her chair with her pipe watching over the kids who do all the chores.. no Alzheimer's or care homes or aches and pains just blessed out and dreaming of their past lovers no doubt. But yes natural medicine I mean not synthesized
Indigenous do not get addicted as people in industrial countries because they grow up and live a natural life feeling cared for without all the stress. Society is what traumatises and makes people sick
@@maninaschiffl7649 it's not so simple but in general yes I could go with what you say . Though I feel you have not been an addict or lived with indigenous people? Or am I wrong..
Another great video Yash, I appreciate your openness. So I've been delving into the world of yogic practices, particularly breathwork and chanting AUM, to enhance the 'I am' awareness (acc to sadhguru) and witness states of consciousness. My curiosity deepens - post these practices, what becomes more perceptive to the all-pervading awareness? Is it the mind or consciousness itself? In the context of Kriya Yoga, stimulating 'life energy,' what aspect becomes perceptive to the constant state of awareness in waking, dreaming, and deep sleep? I'd greatly appreciate your insights on this profound journey. Thank you!"
This is very interesting. I have read about neurodivergents. About 20% of the population in naturally more sensitive and neurologically wired differently. These people have a hard time adjusting to today's hectic society. They often self-medicate with alcohol or drugs or if they have sought help from a doctor then they are on anti-anxiety or depression pills. They are just trying to calm down their nervous system and trying to fit in and function. But a lot of people feel guilt and shame. Society is really not too understanding.

Humans biggest addiction is consumerism 🎉🎉🎉❤
yes, thats another huge undisclosed one..
@@spiritualrenaissance I've been talking about it for decades and liberated myself, Buddhism has taught it for centuries, be in the world not of it
Nah...it's biggest addiction is to being distracted.
Everything else is a means to that end.
Consumerism is just a form of distraction.
@whocares9439 who cares, haha 😄 apparently there was a guy called Jesus he did and look what happened to him, true distraction by being busy entertainment shopping s e x drugs and rocken roll ,work and the endless pursuit of more
Thanks for smoothing that over, I’m not a fan of tobacco even mopocho , also didn’t care for blown tobacco either maybe a lil yopo mixed in some nunu during the ayahuasca but even then a hit of mimosa hostillis would be better but I don’t recommend that too anyone.
I feel you give the same energy as Ram Dass delivered
The opposite actually. Dopamine, Oxytocin, Serotonin, Endorphins are my awakeners.
I woke up in 2012, but im actually awake now.
Thanks, brother. Always look forward to your next upload
Beautifully said my friend!
Of course. I loved the video! God bless you Yash!
I liked this video! Thanks Yash, I like all your videos.
💙
Thanks for this Yash ❤ perfect timing me seeing this cheers brother 👍 😊
Yes brother ❤
Glad I found you bro. Quality message. ✌🏻
I was talking about that with myself yesterday I had informations about tobacco I don't know where I collected them but funny to see that there is no boundary between people everything is just one
🙂 yes that’s fun!
Thank you!
You right❤
Wanna know what helps addiction guilt?
Knowing EVERYONE is adducted to distraction, and use various things to achieve that.
We....are...all...addicts.
Dopamine, Oxytocin, Serotonin, Endorphins
Get your D.O.S E of distraction!!!! Lololol
Addiction is MUCH MUCH bigger than most think.
Awesome video 🎉 thanks
We have to watch out for doctrines of demons.
I'm a week in using those On pouches to stop ciggies. I only use about 5 x 4mg pouches a day. Lungs are feeling better, clothes dont stink, wife is happy. Those little pouches can help. I quit booze a while ago with the help of kratom. I dropped kratom and it wasn't a big deal.
Yeah be careful with kratom brother, I'm a recovering h addict I cannot get away from the kratom. Struggling so hard, I'm glad you could step away. I quit vaping and now I'm in the rogue pouches, better than valing but still hookedto something. Progress over perfection
@jacoberwin4412 this full moon and partial eclipse is a great opportunity to release those habits that don't serve you. I honestly didn't find it too hard to give up Kratom. CIGS were harder. Good luck pal! And congratulations on getting past H! That's a big step.
Strong believer in being true to myself in all I do with bias from others as only tools. Great job clearing the other vid up.
❤thanks
Alan Watts is always getting attacked for his drinking and smoking. And when asked about it he answered ,My philosophy is not concerned with what should be but what is’ haha Osho got it as well and defended him. I am right now 6 months without weed to which I was addicted. But honestly I am thinking a lot about going back to it.
Yes, myself, and these 2 guys that you mentioned and probably yourself as well, belong to the same archetype..:)
@@spiritualrenaissance what would you call that archetype? :) made me curious
Great video as always
Emmanuel is coming ❤
Excellent talk, thanks, needed that! Ya, apparently it’s not even the nicotine in tobacco that’s addictive but the chemicals they put in the cigarettes, intentionally. Also, it’s coming out that nicotine can help treat covid symptoms. Wild…. Good teaching, thx.
Makes ya wonder why tobacco has been attacked by the government for decades.
I heard about tobacco/covid at the start of the great hoax.
Ever look into the fentanyl/covid connection?
CURING KARMIC DEPTS is the only way to awaken, however for the ones that are awakened have to help if asked, you have to be curious as a child and STUDY anything that makes you go hmmm.
I cannot currently stop tobacco use on my current journey. It truly is grounding. Does anybody have a good source for tobacco in the US

@@spiritualrenaissance thank you maestro
Thank you.
I want to need nothing I just will be happy ❤
My friend used to say I don't have a drug problem I have a money problem..
This is actually way deep as if we all lived indigenously with access to our local plants and medicines we'd basically be high all day everyday.. and not addicted as such as the problems the west has with drug use is due to the cost and availability.. limited availability and high price leads to behaviour seen as destructive such as theft , etc etc .
With unlimited supply and for free people would just use as and when required.. but the wests restrictions cause the user to be paranoid and in a constant state of desperation in case their supply ends.. remove this and addictive patterns go.
I've lived with the Akha hill tribe people of Asia and there they say when your young you have sex, then when you have kids you go work in the rice field when your kids have kids you smoke opium.. thus Grandmother sits in her chair with her pipe watching over the kids who do all the chores.. no Alzheimer's or care homes or aches and pains just blessed out and dreaming of their past lovers no doubt.
But yes natural medicine I mean not synthesized
Indigenous do not get addicted as people in industrial countries because they grow up and live a natural life feeling cared for without all the stress. Society is what traumatises and makes people sick
@@maninaschiffl7649 it's not so simple but in general yes I could go with what you say . Though I feel you have not been an addict or lived with indigenous people? Or am I wrong..
@@Beyondtheherd I have not lived with indigenous people but used to drink a lot because of anxiety.
Another great video Yash, I appreciate your openness.
So I've been delving into the world of yogic practices, particularly breathwork and chanting AUM, to enhance the 'I am' awareness (acc to sadhguru) and witness states of consciousness. My curiosity deepens - post these practices, what becomes more perceptive to the all-pervading awareness? Is it the mind or consciousness itself? In the context of Kriya Yoga, stimulating 'life energy,' what aspect becomes perceptive to the constant state of awareness in waking, dreaming, and deep sleep? I'd greatly appreciate your insights on this profound journey. Thank you!"
This is very interesting. I have read about neurodivergents. About 20% of the population in naturally more sensitive and neurologically wired differently. These people have a hard time adjusting to today's hectic society. They often self-medicate with alcohol or drugs or if they have sought help from a doctor then they are on anti-anxiety or depression pills. They are just trying to calm down their nervous system and trying to fit in and function. But a lot of people feel guilt and shame. Society is really not too understanding.
