Sokushinbutsu – The Origin of the Buddhist Mummy:-
Sokushinbutsu, a fascinating phenomenon, involves Buddhist monks in Japan who take asceticism to the extreme, even to the point of death. These dedicated individuals undergo mummification while still alive. While self mummified monk can be found in various Buddhist countries, it is only in Japan where they are believed to have intentionally caused their own demise through starvation.
Interestingly, there is a theory that the founder of the Shingon school, Kukai, brought this practice from Tang China as part of his secret tantric teachings. However, Japanese scholars in the 20th century discovered limited evidence of self-starvation among sokushinbutsu practitioners. Instead, they concluded that mummification occurred after the monk’s natural passing, similar to the practices observed in South Asian countries.
In previous we discussed “the old world order false flags“.
200-year-old mummified monk:-
Mongolia: On January 27th, an approximately 200-year-old Mongolian Buddhist monk was discovered in Songino Khairkhan province. He is said to be in ‘deep concentration’ and ‘not dead’. As reported by The Siberian Times, the monk was clothed in cattle skin and discovered in a cross-legged lotus stance. Not only was he still sitting, but his open palms appeared to be put on over one another in the ‘dhyaan mudra’.
Dr Barry Kerzin, a well-known Buddhist monk and Dalai Lama’s medic, believes that the monk is in Tukdam, one of the deepest phases of meditation. I had the honor of caring for some meditation practitioners in a Tukdam state. If the person can stay in this position for more than three weeks, which is rare, his body eventually shrinks until all that remains are his nails, hair, & clothes. Typically, people who live near the monk see an array of rainbows that light up the sky for a few days. This means he discovered a ‘rainbow body’. This is the state that is most close to the state of Buddha, says Dr Kerzin.
A Reference to The Edge of Wonder TV:-

Worship for immortality:-
The monk’s name is unknown, however, there is suspicion that he is the instructor of Lama Dashi-Dorzho Itigilov, who had been discovered mummified. Itigilov, who was from neighboring Buryatia in the then-Soviet Union, allegedly warned his students in 1927 that he was about to pass away and that they should remove his remains after 30 years.
The Lama sat in a lotus position, started to meditate, and died. According to mythology, his corpse was still intact when he was discovered. Fearing Soviet intervention, his followers reburied him, and he remained there until 2002, when he was dug up again with considerable fanfare and discovered to be in excellent condition.
Lama is not dead:-
Ganhugiyn Purevbata, the founder and teacher of the Mongolian Institute of Buddhist Art at Ulaanbaatar Buddhist University, stated that “Lama is sitting in the lotus position vajra, the left arm is opened, and the right hand symbolizes the preaching sutra.”
“This is evidence that the Lama is not dead, but is in deep meditation, according to the centuries-old custom of Buddhist lamas.” On January 27, mummified corpses wrapped in cattle hide were discovered in Mongolia’s Songinokhairkhan province.
Yet there may be more to the story, as authorities have learned that the monk was taken from another region of the nation and was due to be auctioned. According to an anonymous official, a man took it from a cave in the Kobdsk region and concealed it in his home in Ulaanbaatar. He then planned to sell it on the illegal market for a ‘very high price’, with the local press reporting that he intended to cross the Mongolian border with it. Police discovered the conspiracy and promptly apprehended a 45-year-old man known as Enhtor.
Final Thoughts:-
The text discusses Sokushinbutsu, a unique practice in Japan where Buddhist monks intentionally mummify themselves through extreme asceticism, including self-imposed starvation.
The discovery of a 200-year-old Mongolian Buddhist monk in deep concentration, not dead, in a lotus stance with his palms in the ‘dhyaan mudra’ is a fascinating and mysterious find that raises questions about meditation and the human body’s capabilities.
The corpse of the individual in question was found to be well-preserved when unearthed in 2002 after being reburied due to fears of Soviet intervention.
