In Surabaya, we closed several red light areas, due to which several children have become drug addicts or sex addicts. We need some help.

Sri Sri Ravi Shankar:

Sure, we will definitely be able to extend some help in this direction.

Drug addiction is a mental phenomenon. The mind wants to have some bigger joy. When we can give an altered state of consciousness through the breath, then addiction for drugs, alcohol and sex can be minimized. People get over their addictions very easily through breathing exercises. We can also train youth who can train others get over their addiction.
