What Lies Beneath: Seeing Through the Illusion of Beauty
Ajahn Cunda explores the practice of body contemplation (asubha), encouraging reflection on the impermanent, unattractive, and fragile nature of the human body to reduce attachment and develop dispassion. He emphasizes that such contemplation, while uncomfortable, leads to greater clarity, peace, and acceptance of aging, illness, and death. This Dhamma talk was offered on August 30, 2025 at Abhayagiri Buddhist Monastery.
