Body = The organs' center.
Dhamma-body = The buddha's dhammas' center.
What is the buddha's dhammas' center?
The best wholsome mind developments are buddha's dhamma center, such as 4 satipaṭṭhāna, 4 sammappadhāna, 4 iddhipāda, 5 indriya, 5 bala, 7 bojjhaṅga, etc. Buddha is the center, the body, the summary of the best wholsome mind developments. So, dhamma is his body.

The meaning of the story is that spiritual and mundane, mind and matter, information and media - are two sides of the same coin. Our nature from primordial times is pure and not different from Buddha nature.
We think there's some truth or escape to be found outside of this world, but the truth is, this world is only an interpretation we make, the escape then is to be free from the interpretation. The one who gets this is the one who loses all but still has the guts to laugh. We call this, the Golden-haired Lion.
