### [67.19](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.67.19)

復次修行者。內身循身觀。彼以聞慧。或以天眼。觀於骨中有十種蟲。何等為十。一名䑛骨蟲。二名齧骨蟲。三名割節蟲。四名赤口臭蟲。五名爛蟲。六名赤口蟲。七名頗頭摩蟲。八名食皮蟲。九名風刀蟲。十名刀口蟲。如此十蟲行於骨中。違情損身不可具述。

> Furthermore, the practitioner observes the body internally. Through the wisdom born of hearing or through the divine eye, one contemplates that there are ten kinds of worms in the bones. What are the ten? First is the bone-licking worm; second, the bone-gnawing worm; third, the joint-severing worm; fourth, the red-mouthed foul worm; fifth, the rotting worm; sixth, the red-mouthed worm; seventh, the paduma worm; eighth, the skin-eating worm; ninth, the wind-knife worm; tenth, the knife-mouthed worm. These ten worms move through the bones, running contrary to one's constitution and harming the body beyond full description.
