- extracted from OSHO quotes on body
Starving fulfills the ego, because the more they starve, more and more people come to worship them. I don't think when you are fasting you can meditate. You can only think of food and nothing else; But if you are well fed, you don't think of food. The body is completely satisfied, it does not create any disturbance.
You cannot decide once and forever that "I will eat only so much" -- because your needs change, depends on how much work your body has done. And once in a while your body may not need food at all. If you are ill it will be good to give the body complete rest, because eating means work for the body.
To live pleasurably, to live joyously is not against meditation. It is really the basic need of meditation.
