ADDICTION: A Spiritual Search... In All The Wrong Places? - Jeff Foster
Jeff Foster offers an alternative perspective on addiction. He suggests that all human beings are #39;addicts #39; to some extent - we are all trying to escape or distract ourselves from the present moment in various ways - through drugs, through shopping, through alcohol, through work, even through spirituality - seeking contentment outside of ourselves, seeking wholeness in the future. What goes to the core of all our addictions is our addiction to "me", our misidentification as a separate wave in the vast ocean of life, and the ensuing search for That which we already are. Addiction is a war with the present moment, and discovering deep acceptance - the acceptance that you are in your essence - is where this war can end. We simply stop seeking contentment outside of ourselves.... Jeff #39;s new book #39;The Deepest Acceptance: Radical Awakening in Ordinary Life #39; is published by Sounds True.
