(६) अशुचि - भावना
- (मत्तमयूरवृत्तम् ) दृष्ट्वा बाह्यं रूपमनित्यं क्षणकान्तं, हे मित्र ! त्वं मुह्यसि किं फल्गुशरीरे । नान्तद्देश्य रोगसहस्राश्रितमेतदेहं निन्द्यं रम्यमिम ज्ञः कथयेत्कः ॥४२॥
Meaning :- Oh! simple-minded person ! why do you become fascinated with the unsubstantial body which is momentarily changing its form and beauty, appearing graceful at one moment and ungraceful at another moment? This body of ours is internally abounding in diseases and an abode of thousands of aliments. One has to endure innumerable evils only on account of this body. This body is beautiful only externally. Under the skin nothing but the bones, flash, and blood is visible. Who will call this body, which is full of filthy and dirty material, beautiful and charming ? (42)
