“However Is there a broad or a standard framework prescribed by the Vaijja (the Great Doctor) for those who are willing to learn and work on it? Not just cigarette but breaking free of Sensual Pleasures as such?”
That is what I described in the comment above.
- The only way to get rid of “bad practices” (not only smoking but other cravings also) is to see their drawbacks.
- It helps a lot to understand that all those cravings are rooted in “distorted saññā” i.e., those cravings are “mind-made.”
- It is necessary to understand the ideas described in “Fooled by Distorted Saññā (Sañjānāti) – Origin of Attachment (Taṇhā)” and “Mūlapariyāya Sutta – The Root of All Things“ and other posts.
- I don’t seem to be making that point clear. I am not sure what it would take to get this idea across. There are no other “easy ways out.”
