Eknath Easwaran Quotes

Today As I Was Reading An Article About A Recent Convention Of Psychologists In San Francisco. One Of The Major Concerns Of The Psychologists And Medical Doctors Attending The Conference Is The Increase In The Use Of "legal Psychoactive" Drugs, Such As Tranquilizers. Many Patients Who Do Not Have An Organic Illness Go To Their Doctors Because Of Emotional Problems And Are Given Drugs Which Will Calm Them, Help Them Sleep Better, Or Stimulate Them. As These Psychologists Point Out, This Chemical Therapy Is Based Partly On The Assumption That We Should All Be In A State Of Continuous Pleasure, Untroubled By Stress. The Consequences Of Taking These Drugs Are Far-reaching, And Dependence Upon Them Actually Takes Away From The Capacity To Deal With The Problems Of Life. Also, Dependence Upon Drugs By The Older Generation Can Influence Their Children To Seek Instant Happiness Through The More Powerful Mind-altering Drugs.
