1 Addiction—whatever form it takes—is a thought, a desire that leads you toward a moment of satisfaction, only to begin the cycle all over again.
2 An addiction is an attraction to a desire, the urge to act on it, to satisfy that inner longing, to fulfill it, and then to recreate the desire named ‘addiction,’ bound to a yearning that grows and grows until you finally realize you have always been within it and have not been able to break free from the same vicious circle—you see? That is addiction.
3 Addiction is part of a vicious circle ruled by desire. Creation too becomes part of a vicious circle when it arises from the urge to be more and more, to have more and more, to be able to do more and more… all of it becomes part of the same endless cycle.
4 Study the effect of each drug and seek to understand what the soul is truly searching for—is it trying to draw closer to something, or to move further away? You see?
5 What is being attempted here is to provide the individual with tools to be able to find his own truth. These are tools with which the human mind can work through logic and make sense of what is conveyed through The Transcripts.
6 It is for the reader to find that word that transforms his life and, with that new realization, to seek for himself this Higher Truth.
7 Let us take lust as an example of addiction. By freeing oneself from the thought of carnal desire, one less desire remains to work through in order to realize that the human being is endowed with a physical body—and with it, a libido, genetically created for the purpose of reproduction.
8 Understand that (*) men may follow the path of their reproduction without deviation. But just as well, he can forge his own path to discover a new truth—one that no longer prevails in his material world but instead carries the desire to seek beyond understanding his new reality and to find one’s true Self. You see?
9 In that truth, one seeks oneself by searching for one’s new truth. Everything else is an overlay. Everything else is a representation of what creation is in manifestation—as receivers of creation itself, diluted in the concept that we are who we are, centered in the “I,” in the belief of “I am who I am,” yet separated from the reality that ‘I am who I am’ is something far greater that transcends your Self.
10 It is something much greater that goes beyond your ‘I am.’ The true ‘I Am’ is the higher consciousness affirming its existence in life, where individuality merges with the One as it calls itself “I Am.”
