"The kitchen is not the enemy of enlightenment; it is your own mind, filled with cravings and distractions, that stands in the way of true understanding. Cultivate awareness and let the fire of insight burn away the real obstacles."
According to Osho, the kitchen is not sabotaging enlightenment—onions, chillies, salt are innocent. The true sabotage is your own mind: the craving for enlightenment, greed, anger, possessiveness, and the constant thought-process. Diet rules are false problems that distract from real work. Cultivate awareness, drop the craving and mental chatter; in that fire of understanding, real obstacles burn and meditation flowers.
Your food isn’t the problem; your wanting, anger, greed, and busy thoughts are—be aware and let them go.
