And again, a bhikkhu, while going forward or while going back does so with clear understanding ; while looking straight ahead or while looking elsewhere he does so with clear understanding; while bending or stretching his limbs he does so with clear understanding; while carrying the alms bowl and while wearing the robes he does so with clear understanding; while eating, drinking, chewing, and savoring he does so with clear understanding; while urinating or defecating he does so with clear understanding; while walking, standing, sitting, falling asleep, waking, speaking or when remaining silent, he does so with clear understanding.

Thus he dwells perceiving again and again the body as just the body, not mine, not I, not self, but just a phenomenon, in himself; or he dwells perceiving again and again the body as just the body in others ; or he dwells perceiving again and again the body as just the body in both himself and in others. He dwells perceiving again and again the cause and the actual appearing of the body; or he dwells perceiving gain and again the cause and the actual dissolution of the body; or he dwells perceiving again and again both the actual appearing and dissolution of the body with their causes.

To summarize, he is firmly mindful of the fact that only the body exists, not a soul, a self or I. That mindfulness is just for gaining insight and mindfulness progressively. Being detached from craving and wrong views he dwells without clinging to anything in the world.

Thus, this is a way in which a bhikkhu dwells perceiving again and again the body as just the body.
