i am here again lol, but sure does not sound good to have ur corpse been devour
ya, to us, it may seem very unpleasant. To some ppl with certain belief, they may think a corpse is attached to the soul, so a 死无全尸 is being disrespectful to the dead, or maybe result in the dead not resting in peace.

However, with more ppl accepting the theory of corpse being useless, we see ppl spreading love after death.

Maybe in our context, our way is through the donation of useful organs.

but when u look at nature its an unless cycle of devouring or consuming
from 1 form of energy to the other so when u say 死无全尸, it seems that mother nature deem it as a normal and also the most energy efficient way.

guess humans are just different

yes u got it! It is supposed to be part of nature. But the human's perception of self resulted in certain protective behaviour that everybody have the instinct to "save the best for themself" and "keep all things that appear to be unpleassant away".

yup the human perception or as buddism known as Wo Xiang
an high enlighten one can see through such perception and view the world
as a whole with whole new consciousness. but to normal being
we are just trying to protect ourselves with our brain as the main tool
as the "I" gets more pampered we demanded more but if one can see through it
it is but just an illusion.

Actually i do know alot of buddism lol

yea, quite hard to follow the enlightenment path due to the environment that we are in. Too much temptations. Even if you can resist temptations, the competitive environment means we are forced to take certain form of attachments in order to survive.

But still, it is still very relevant in our life with the most applicable part being moral values, emotional control and mindfulness applications, and of cos, optimism as in letting go of things that are gone.
