Khuddaka Nikaya

Sundarīnandā

Early Buddhist TextsKhuddaka Nikaya

“Nandā, see this bag of bones as diseased, filthy, and rotten. With mind unified and serene, meditate on the ugly aspects of the body: as this is, so is that, as that is, so is this. A foul stink wafts from it, it is the fools’ delight.” Reflecting in such a way, tireless all day and night, having broken through with my own wisdom, I saw. Being diligent, rationally investigating, I truly saw this body both inside and out. Then, growing disillusioned with the body, I became dispassionate within. Diligent, detached, I’m quenched and at peace.
