Your Body is a Burden

-Detachment from identity and gender. -Equanimity arises not from changing external perceptions but from relinquishing ownership of the body and its attributes. -Praise and blame affect only those who mistakenly identify with their form, but letting it go will require abandoning of the pursuit of validation, desire, and self-image. -Beautification and social approval reinforce attachment, while seeing the body as impermanent and not-self leads to freedom from suffering.
