The world is a habit, but drugs are a worse habit. The one who is finding refuge in drugs is fed up of the usual stuff of consciousness, that is certain, but he is taking a very wasteful route. It’s like feeling cold in Delhi in the month of December and therefore wanting to escape away, and so you go to Shimla. That kind of wisdom. “Darling, we must go somewhere. It’s freezing cold in Delhi!” So, darling books the flight to Srinagar. That’s the kind of wisdom contained in using drugs for spiritual attainment.
