The practitioner straightens the body and corrects the mind, carefully contemplating the big toe of the foot, imagining it swollen and black like a large bean, or like the mark of a callous on the foot. In a quiet mind, when this mark is completed, one then imagines the swelling rising up to the size of a pear-bean, and so on until one sees the big toe swollen like a chicken's egg. Next, one contemplates the second toe; the third, fourth, and fifth toes are also like this. Next, one contemplates the rest of the foot, again seeing it swollen, up to the sole, the heel, the ankle, the calf, the knee, the thigh, and the hip, all seen as swollen. Next, one contemplates the right foot in the same way. Next, with a quiet mind, one should carefully imagine the passages of feces and urine, the waist, the spine, the abdomen, the back, the chest, and the flanks, all seen as swollen. Next, with a quiet mind, one should carefully contemplate the left shoulder blade, arm, elbow, wrist, palm, and five fingers, all seen as swollen; up to the right shoulder blade, it is also like this. Next, with a quiet mind, one should carefully contemplate the neck, nape, head, and chin, all seen as swollen. The whole body and neck become rigid. In this way, from head to foot and from foot to head, observing along the body, one sees only swelling, and the mind generates disgust. Furthermore, one should contemplate bursting, festering with pus, stained with impure blood, and worms and pus flowing from the passages of feces and urine. The abdomen having split open, one sees all the internal organs and the thirty-six components rotting and impure, and the mind generates disgust. Contemplating one's own body, it is worse than a dead dog; contemplating the external bodies of beloved men and women, they are also like this, not to be loved or enjoyed. It is explained in detail as in the nine notions, differing only in excluding the two notions of scattering and burning. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 10.17](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916.10.17) - [Next: 10.19](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916.10.19) - [Up: 10](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916.10) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916~en-mt.10.18) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [妙法蓮華經玄義](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1716.4.17) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916.10.18](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916.10.18) · Pramāṇa
