00:00Those things you are addicted to exist because you have nothing better in your life.
00:06No point just cursing one's addictions.
00:10Addictions exist to fill a deep inner void.
00:14You have a need to be addicted, be it whatever, TV shows or videos or drugs or many other
00:22things one can be addicted to.
00:24So videos don't just suddenly pounce at you from your mobile screen after midnight.
00:30You must be clicking at the application and scrolling through.
00:34So you are the one who is going to those things.
00:36Why are you going to those things?
00:38That's what spirituality is about.
00:39Look into yourself.
00:40Why do you need to go to those things?
00:42You need to go to those things because there is a crying hollow.
00:45Unless you bring something higher into your life to fill that hollow, those videos and
00:52other things will continue to exist.
00:54Irrespective of how much we beat our chest over them.
