Why is the body cold after death?

Not only is the body cold, but from the Buddhist worldview, the world's substances are composed of the four major combinations. Therefore, people are no exception, and the four major ones, earth, water, fire, and wind, also refer to the four natures of hardness, wetness, warmth, and movement. It is called "big" because it is universally present in any object, that is, the "four big" are the inherent physical properties of each object itself, rather than just referring to the earth, rivers, sunlight, and wind in nature.

As far as the human body is concerned, the skin, flesh, muscles and bones belong to the "earth", the sweat and blood fluid belong to the "water", the body warmth and air belong to the "fire", and the breathing movement belongs to the "wind". The concept that matter (called color in Buddhism) is composed of the "four things" reflects the basic understanding of the material world of ancient Indians, and is the result of the initial exploration of the universe by human beings, and belongs to a simple materialist thought, which is similar to the ancient Chinese "five elements" (metal, wood, water, fire, and earth). After the emergence of Buddhism, it adopted and deepened the ideas inherent in ancient India.

When a person dies, the four major disintegrates, and there is a certain order. At first, it melted into water, but now it feels like a mountain of pain. The second time the water melts into fire, and it feels cold and wet as if it is immersed in water.

The second time the cold and dampness disappear and become damp, as in soup. The second time the fire melts into the wind, and the feeling body is blown by the wind and turns into fine dust. When the four major disintegrates, it is like a raw turtle peeling its shell, which is the most unbearable.

If there is a feeling of mountain pressure, soaking in water, soup, wind blowing and turning dust, saying that the four major names of me are going to be separated, and they are dead. Therefore, the human body is cold when it is human.

After death, the heat dissipates, and the blood doesn't flow anymore, so there's no more energy, and the natural coldness of the gas poisoning seems to take a few days to get cold.

After death, all the functions of the body are gone, and if it doesn't work, it can't produce heat, and it slowly cools down. until it stiffens

After death, the body's functions stop after six hours, the heart does not beat, the body's metabolic reaction stops, and the body's body temperature cannot be maintained.

The body temperature will not be low.

But people who are dying should feel cold.

Those who die will, but those who don't die don't.

I think so.
