We can see even a corpse as beautiful and nothing to be frightened of. Some say real beauty is in a corpse, real goodness is when we let go. To eliminate our desires, greed, and hatred, all material objects should be seen as lumps of earth, empty of quality and value. If we consider carefully, we can see where a corpse comes from and where it goes at the end. Everything comes from the earh, and everything returns to the earth.
Dead bodies return to dust, together with many other material objects.
The root of each hair of our body has a channel for oil arising from glands under the adjoining skin. These substances are not pleasant, and their source is also unpleasant. These are things we should consider until we see them clearly and realize that we must let go. Choose one of these things, say, hair, nails, or teeth, and examine it closely, backward and forward. Concentration on it until every detai is clear, and we understand how these things arise and hwere they will go at the end.
