The articles by Chili Prepper are deeply influenced by J. Krishnamurti, who, as a thinker, has had a particularly strong impact on Prepper. His curiosity about Krishnamurti has remained with him over time, leading him to continue engaging with Krishnamurti in order to uncover the treasures contained in his teachings. A hallmark of his writing style is his unconventional approach, as well as his tendency to examine our lives from new perspectives.
His articles deal not only with Krishnamurti, but also with current political issues. Prepper is not content to view Krishnamurti’s teachings as a spiritual topic confined within a hermetically sealed bubble; rather, he seeks to apply Krishnamurti to our fragmented lives. It is important to him, whenever possible, to take Krishnamurti out of the purely spiritual realm and apply him to our political life.
In his own search for wisdom and clarity, Prepper does not shy away from criticizing Krishnamurtians and sometimes even Krishnamurti. He likely intends his articles to be understood as snapshots of his thinking rather than as universal truths. Furthermore, he views his own writing critically and certainly distances himself from it as much as possible. However, this does not prevent him from calling on the world to engage with his texts.
He lets the accusation—that he is intellectually incapable of writing an article without mentioning Krishnamurti—fade into the emptiness of the universe.
