This play deals with the issues of addiction of substances and understands them deeply it was concluded that addiction is a state of mind, state of heart, state of soul or just the weak state of body. Why does someone rely on the things outside their self? Either because his surroundings don’t have what that entity is giving, non-belonging or the self is void. If this is the right understanding then addicts of things can grow to become addicts of people and emotions. From emotions to enlightenment, they can move from lower to higher addictions. They can grow beyond this body and be eternal. The addiction controlling their body can be let go. Yes, so there is a possibility of existence of the Eternal Addicts. Yes it is possible.

The Play starts with this Idea and deeper understanding of Eternal addicts like the spiritual and divine souls of Yogis, the agitated and longing souls of the lovers and the analytical or logical souls of philosophers the play is set in a metaphorical world of rehabilitation. Addicts of different backgrounds and abused by substances of different kind enter a room where the voice of narrator talks to them and indulges them into a conversation of self-realization. The Souls of Yogi, Lover and Philosopher talk their heart out of how they passed through to higher addiction. And then there is a session where some addicts are still in denial and choose hell and some addicts accept and rehabilitate to live a life of heaven. A simple metaphoric series of monologues and amalgamation of sequences will let us see deeper into different lives. Entry - Free
