“If you want to save the youth, save them from addiction first.” — Saint Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh Ji Insan
In a country where dreams are often derailed by the dangerous grip of addiction, one movement is quietly but powerfully transforming lives — not through punishment or stigma, but through meditation, health, and purpose.
Welcome to DEPTH, a unique and spiritually charged mission to eradicate drug abuse from India’s roots.
Launched by Saint Dr. Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh Ji Insan, this campaign isn’t just a slogan — it’s a lifeline. Standing for Drug Eradication Pan India Through Health & Meditation, the DEPTH initiative is breathing hope into communities long plagued by addiction.
🧠 The Problem: Addiction Stealing Lives and Potential
India faces an alarming rise in substance abuse, especially among youth. According to national surveys, millions are trapped in cycles of alcohol, tobacco, and narcotics. But the deeper wound lies not just in health — addiction fractures families, careers, and communities.
This is where Dera Sacha Sauda’s DEPTH Campaign steps in — not with condemnation, but with compassionate action.
“We must not only remove drugs from the hands of youth — we must give them something more meaningful to hold on to.”
— Saint Gurmeet Ram Rahim Ji

🧘♂️ Meditation as Medicine: The Science Behind the Spirit
What makes the DEPTH campaign different? It doesn’t rely on medicine alone — it turns meditation into the medicine.
Practices taught at Dera Sacha Sauda focus on calming the mind, regulating emotions, and awakening self-awareness. Countless recovering addicts have shared how Naam-Shabd meditation helped them fight withdrawal, anxiety, and relapse.
“I left drugs without any rehab — only because of meditation and the guidance of Saint MSG.”

💪 Youth Empowerment Through Seva and Self-Respect
The campaign’s true power lies in how it redefines identity for former addicts. Instead of being seen as liabilities, they are uplifted as volunteers, mentors, and change-makers in society.
