"Here is blood; there is flesh; Here is fat; there is bone; Here again is marrow; there again is semen."
The sadhaka thus looks into these and contemplates thoroughly over them.
The interior of the body means the pits and holes which the sādhaka sees in the body. He perceives the navel - the pit in the stomach, the hole in the ear, the armpits in the right and the left sides, the pores and other holes in the body. Thus, his desires are pacified.
The Buddhist monks also made such repugnant things the object of meditation (Cf. Visuddhi magga part I, pp. 16465).
