Answer by Suminda Sirinath S. Dharmasena for Attachment to body and bodily sensations

Right from the birth we are so attached to our body.Unwanted sensations easily disrupt the peace of our mind.

That's right.

Why is the mind so attached to the body ...

You are born due to attachment to the body. If it was not so you will not be re born.

... and how to overcome such attachments?

This is though the pratice of Vipassana.

You have to be mindful of arising and passing of sensation pertaining to:

  • Body - Posture, Elements, Beauty
  • Feeling
  • Mental state
  • Mental content
