Tukdam

Tukdam is supposedly just one step from becoming a real-life Buddha. The fellow below is in a state of tukdam.

The fellow is a monk who died more than 200 years ago, but some feel that he is "not dead". He is in a state of "very deep meditation". He's a mummy preserved in animal skin. The body was stolen from a cave in the Ulan Bator and was set to be sold on the black market.
