Untitled Discourse on Greed (2nd)

“For insight into greed, ten things should be developed. What ten? The perceptions of impermanence, not-self, repulsiveness of food, dissatisfaction with the whole world, a skeleton, a worm-infested corpse, a livid corpse, a festering corpse, a split open corpse, and a bloated corpse. For insight into greed, these ten things should be developed.”
