"Each of us here possesses a physical body made up of bones, flesh, blood and such things. At present
we are not able to exert complete control over this body and as a result we always experience problems.
There might be a rich man whose wealth is equal to that of the entire world yet despite his enormous
fortune, if his mind is tied up in an uncontrolled body, he will live in continual suffering. Rich or poor,
none of us escape this problem. Try as we may, we never seem to find an end to our difficulties. If we
solve one, another immediately takes its place. The conflicts and suffering involved in maintaining our
physical body are the same no matter where we may be. If we have the wisdom to penetrate deeply into
the heart of this matter and check the actual way things are, we quickly perceive the universality of this
unsatisfactory situation. It also becomes clear that if we did not have such an uncontrolled body, there
would be no way for us to experience the sufferings related to it"
