Simplified Meaning:

Addiction means being overly dependent on something and not being able to live without it. This quote is saying that any kind of addiction, whether it involves using a substance like alcohol or a drug like morphine, or even being obsessed with an idea or belief, is harmful. For example, someone addicted to alcohol might spend all their time drinking and ignore their family and responsibilities, which hurts their relationships and health. Similarly, a person obsessed with an idea, like achieving perfection, might constantly stress themselves and never feel satisfied, damaging their mental well-being. It teaches us that balance is important and being too obsessed with anything can lead to negative consequences. To apply this wisdom, one should try to maintain a healthy balance in their life, enjoying things in moderation without letting any one thing take control.
