Mystical Escapism From Reality
Like all types of addiction, spiritual addicts, too tend to go further away from reality and forsake daily responsibilities. They become self obsessed to such an extent that they forget about looking after their near and dear ones. They leave everything to chance and have the ever omnipresent excuse at hand, that things are beyond their control and that everything that's happening or is to happen is meant to be. It's their destiny or karma or will of the universe. They become so immersed in seeking answers from a higher power, that they often forget to look within themselves and never find inner peace. They become increasingly dependent on faith, averse to normality and do not find refuge in themselves.
