Detoxing Gen Z: Substance & Ideology
Two intoxications, one generation — a mentoring session on the dependencies of the body and the borrowed certainties of the mind.
Indic Lectures — session notes · Indic Warriors lecture series
This mentoring lecture treats two dependencies with one framework. The first is familiar: substances, screens, and the dopamine economy engineered around young attention. The second is subtler: ideological intoxication — outsourcing one’s judgement to whichever total explanation arrived first, and mistaking the resulting certainty for thought.
The Indic counseling frame addresses both the same way: through the restoration of agency. Practices of attention (the oldest technology we own), the ashrama insight that a student’s dharma is formation before position, and honest mentorship over moralizing. Practical, unpreachy, and built for the students’ corner it serves.
Attend or revisit: session schedules and recordings are announced on the Indic Lectures page; related reading grows on the Counseling & Indic Psychology shelf.
