Or just watch this bad video:
This remarkably preserved monk, found in the lotus position, may have practiced self-mummification, a grueling process that begins to preserve one's body before death. Some Buddhists are claiming that the 200 year old monk is not, in fact, dead but in a deep meditative state.
Incorruptibility is considered a mark of sainthood in many traditions. Even Vladmir Lenin's corpse, "perfectly" preserved, is seen as somehow marvelous.
