Episode Details

Contemplating the 4 elements, the 32 parts of the living body, and the remains of the body in a charnel ground, we gain a deeper understanding of impermanence and the intrinsic impersonal and empty nature of the body. Seeing it for what it truly is can free us from fear of death. We study it, and gradually unveil the true gift of death as a portal to our liberation. This is talk 5 of 14 talks given during SIMT retreat at Chapin Mill in August of 2019.
