Dead Buddhist monk, Luang Phor Pian was found smiling after his body was removed from his coffin two months after his death.
Luang Phor Pian died aged 92 on November 16 after succumbing to illness in a hospital in Thailand’s capital of Bangkok.
Originally from Cambodia, Pian spent the majority of his life serving as a well-known spiritual and Buddhist guru in the central Thai province of Lopburi, where his body was returned to the following death. This week when his followers removed his body from his coffin, which had been kept at the temple where he served, they were shocked to find his body that his body had not decayed.
Amazingly, Pian also appeared to be smiling, with followers taking pictures of the incredible moment and sharing it on social media. Reports said the monks had removed the monk’s body in order to fit him with new, clean robes.
His body appeared in a state consistent with somebody who had been dead for no more than 36 hours, reports added. Pian’s peaceful state has been described as a sign that the monk has truly reached nirvana. The monk’s followers will continue to pray for him until a final resting ceremony is held on the 100th day of his death.
