Why do thoughts interfere in knowing the truth?

Truth can only enter the mind when it is empty; like a mirror, it reflects reality only when free of dust and clutter.

— Osho
According to Osho, thoughts interfere because they preoccupy and crowd the mind, creating a fog—like dust on a mirror or tea overflowing a full cup—so reality cannot be reflected or received. Truth is the ultimate guest; it enters only when there is empty space. By relaxing, becoming silent, and dropping mental clutter, awareness opens to what is, beyond projections, desires, and private dream-worlds.

When your head is stuffed with thoughts, there’s no room for truth, so make quiet space inside first.
