Advice from Rinpoche on how to think when seeing naked bodies at the beach. 

Especially these days when they display so much at the beach, like wearing only tiny threads covering [their bodies], I have seen this at the beach and I think at the same time inside is flesh and bones, a skeleton. It is like a plastic bag inside full of kaka and pipi; the only thing is we can’t see that through the eyes so much.

[Living] the attached life, we become crazy and we spend so many dollars, thousands and millions of dollars. 

The only thing is in reality, that is just covered by very thin skin.
