Addiction is defined as a Compulsory, chronic, psychological, and physiological need for a habit-forming substance, activity, or behavior having harmful physical, phycological, or social effects and causing well-defined symptoms such as anxiety, irritability, tremors, or nausea upon withdrawal or abstinence.
Addiction saps away the time, money, and energy of youths which can be utilized in building a better future for an individual and our nation. Addiction gives a kind of kick experience which compels the person to do it again and again. ISKCON Founder Acharya HDG A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami went to America in mid sixties when hippie culture was at its peak which was mostly anointed with the drug addiction. But when he gradually engaged them in positive engagements, they voluntarily left their addictive habits. Following in his footsteps Today also ISKCON is determined to help the youth of nation on the path of character and competence so that they become meaningful contributor in the making of tomorrow’s India
