在我個人修持的經驗裏，折磨身體只有兩種答案 ， 一、身體有基本生存慾望，當它感覺到生存有困難時，會強力掙扎，就算你給它現在在修行的命令，也沒用，因為它是活著的器官，需要有食物補給，才能維持運作，很餓的時候像有枯火在體內燒，是一種乾裂的痛苦，這個時候才驚覺身體是很多個體，一旦出現一個不舒服，全體都跑出來抗議。
In my personal experience, tormenting your body only has two answers: 1. Your body has its own survival instinct. When it feels that it has difficulty, it will struggle forcibly. Even if you order it, the order will be useless. Because it is a living organ and requires nutrient in order to function. When you are very hungry, you will feel like there is a fire burning in your body, causing parching pain. At this moment, you will find out that your body has many components, when one of them is not comfortable, they all come out with complaints.
二、你可以在這時下強烈命令，要求它安靜，不給它希望會有任何補及加入，一番折騰後它會安靜，但隨之而來的是，自己會發現{大腦}不動了，沒有補足養分的結果是它自己罷工，你可以不要食物，換取大腦呆滯。
2. At this point, you can give your body a strong order, wishing it to quiet down and giving it no hope of getting any energy and nutrients. After some struggle, it will quiet down, but in exchange, you will find yourself brain dead. The brain shut itself off when it has no nutrient. You can accept no food, in exchange for a numb brain.
很多修行人有一種很深的錯覺，以為身體是自己的，想怎樣對它就怎樣對它，如果修行一開始先去看看病的不能動的人，對身體的看法，會有很大的改觀，至少不會認為身體是可以被自己掌控的，
Many practitioners have a deeply held mistaken view. They thought that their bodies belongs to them, and can do to their bodies as they please. These people, if they had spent some time looking at patients who are too sick to move before their Practice, will have a drastically different view of the body. At least they won't think that they can control their own body.
身體好的時候，才是修行的好幫手，一個健康的身體，思路敏捷，積極進取.......許許多多的用途都靠它，社會新聞常報導，誰沒飯吃餓到怎樣又怎樣，這些知識大家都有，但是它一旦換上修行的服裝，一切完全合理，合理到不用懷疑，不論台灣、國外、大多數人總錯認這是修行必要的條件，所以沒有質疑就全盤接受，一個以智慧解脫為追求目的的修法，基礎訓練只是一個開端，思考能力的培植才是根本。
A healthy body is the best partner of a practitioner. A healthy body will make practitioner smarter, more motivated, more energetic, and many many other benefits. There are always news reports of people who had nothing to eat and the consequences of not eating. Everyone has this knowledge, but once it is cloaked with Practice, it all become reasonable. So reasonable that we are not allowed to be skeptical about it. Domestically and internationally, many people have a mistaken notions that denial of the body is a condition of Practice, so they accept it without question. The fundamental of a practice that rely on wisdom to reach enlightenment is the development of critical thinking abilities.
修行不是練少林拳，是以武力取勝，當然要極端訓練身體，修行是尋求解脫，從真相下手。
Practice is not Shoalin Martial Art. If you want to win using physical force, of course you will need to train your body to the extreme. Practice is looking for freedom, for liberation and we need to start from the Truth.
