SUBJECT: Seven Addictions (Sapt Vyasan)

SEVEN ADDICTIONS (SAPT VAYSAN) It is a well-known phenomenon that bad habits (vices) enter smoothly into human-nature but virtues have to adopted forcefully, this adaptation of virtues involves many facts such: atmosphere, food, mind setup etc. As you know that nobody can do any serious work or study in state of anger, violence temptation and upset mind, it means before jumping into any serious work we must get rid of the above said states of mind. We can’t wipe off these completely until and unless we reach to core of the same. “Jainism says “Seven Addictions” (SAPT VAYSAN) are root of all kind of vices and indulging into these nobody can be able to understand the real sense of Jainism” “Seven Addictions might be source of happiness for modern society or westernized persons but see the consequences of all these”

2.Eating Meat (Mans khana) 3. Drinking (Madira pan) NAME AND DEFINATIONS OF SEVEN ADDICTIONS (SAPT VAYSAN) Seven addictions are: 1.Gambling (Jua khelna) 2.Eating Meat (Mans khana) 3. Drinking (Madira pan) 4. Enjoyment of prostitutes (veshya gaman) 5 Hunting (Shikar khelna) 6.Stealing (Chori Karna) 7.Indulgence in other women (Parstri Raman)

Definition of Addiction To be deeply engrossed in any habit is an addiction. Here indulgence in bad habits is called addictions, which produce restlessness in beings and make them vicious. That way, attachments, aversions and habits creating cravings are all addictions There are two kinds of all addictions 1. Material (Dravya) 2. Psychic (Bhaav)

1. Gambling Keeping defeat and victory in sight, to stake money or other items of wealth in games, or to do something on conditions of gaining or losing money and to be hopeful of extra gain or in fear of losing something, are all various kinds of physical gambling. To consider one blessed in the fruition of merit karmas and be unhappy in the fruition of demerit karmas is spiritual gambling. To renounce all such feelings is real abstinence from gambling.

2. Meat-eating To be addicted to eat dead or killed bodies of animals is material meat-eating. To be very much concerned with the body, to feel sorry at emaciated health of the body and rejoice in good health and to be constantly engaged in and be anxious about keeping the body healthy is psychic meat-eating. 3. Drinking To take wine, hemp and its preparations or other intoxicants is material drinking and to remain forgetful of the’ self due to delusion is psychic drinking.

4. Enjoyment of Prostitutes To have sex with a prostitute’ and to go to her place is material enjoyment of prostitutes, and to be interested in perverted intellect is psychic enjoyment. That is to say, engaging oneself in sensual pleasures and passions, leaving the nature of the soul, is such enjoyment. A prostitute destroys wealth, health and good name, while perverted intellect destroys the good name of the soul and pushes one to the tortures of tare lowest cadre of life for times eternal.

5. Hunting To kill and enjoy killing bear, lion, deer, pig or any other freely wandering animals of the woods and different birds cruelly, with a gun or other arms is material hunting, and to kill psychic life actuated by strong passions and to enjoy torturing other creatures is psychic hunting.

6. Indulgence in other women To like to enjoy women, except the one duly married according to religious precepts, is material indulgence in other women, while examining others’ wisdom without comprehending the essence of the fundamentals is psychic indulgence that is indulging and interfering in the life currents of others, leaving one’s self, is psychic indulgence.

7. Theft To take others belongings without their permission, and with recklessness is material stealing, while to accept relationship with non-self articles and beings with a feeling of attachment is psychic stealing.

SUMMARY One cannot know one’s self without abandoning all these seven addictions. Those who are disgusted with the worldly turmoil and want to attain real happiness of the soul, should definitely get rid of these seven addictions, since one cannot have Right Faith in the presence of even one of these addictions are easily abandoned if one is drawn towards one’s soul and enjoys its progress towards perfection. Even at present these addictions are painful and decried by the world. Those indulging in these are called addicts and vicious.
