Question: Let’s say a person understands perfectly well that some medicine will help him, and he takes it. But at some point, he stops and says: “That is it, I do not want it anymore.” Like for example, drug addicts who know that they should be cured, and that they should endure certain suffering in order to get rid of drug addiction, but they cannot stop.

Answer: This is also a sign of insufficient suffering. At the end of this suffering, a new, lower level gradually unfolds in us where we are no longer able to use false pleasure.

Over time, withdrawal from drugs will come. People will not be able to use them because they will reach the final development of consciousness.

“I can no longer smoke, inject, or sniff. I cannot!”

“Why?”

“Because it is a lie!”

That is, just the understanding that it is a lie neutralizes the feeling of pleasure in them.

This is a natural, dialectical development of our multilayered desire, which consists of its root (zero) level and then the first, second, third, and fourth phases. When we reach the fourth phase of desire—that is it, the end! We can no longer use it.

We realize that it is opposite to some source, something we cannot violate, and that is it. We cannot use that desire anymore. We must rise above it.
