Beauty is only skin deep.
This is the truth, but who wants to know?
We spend money on clothes, decoration,
It looks beautiful on outside ,
It is really ugly inside.
Full of impure things,
We need to take care of it,
Bath it, feed it, groom it.
Taking care of it every day,
Day and night.
Yet it lets us down
By aging , sickness and death.
Not so say we should ignore it,
Because we still need it.
Just as the boat carrying passengers to other shore,
So also the body carrying us to the truth.
From the body, we learn the truth:
Impurity, impermanence, suffering and non-self.
Though it shows us this truth,
We choose to ignore it.
Welcome to the truth,
If you really like the truth.
