ralis Posted February 6, 2015 If this dude is not dead, then I want to see if he has a pulse. If no pulse, I doubt if CPR would do the trick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joeblast Posted February 6, 2015 He's dead, people just have too clingy of a view of the body and space truck about still hanging out a century+ after dessication is all but complete. Rather than a heartbeat, is the flesh still fresh and pliable? If not, then dead. That decay did not set in is merely evidence of a very long meditation that was able to purify all of the bacteria from the gut. That rainbow body did not happen is evidence that the energetic amplitudes were not high enough for physical transformation. Purposefully, or not. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zerostao Posted February 6, 2015 its not the image of longevity i would pursue. however, i wish he was able to continue his meditation undisturbed in the cave and not be some novelty for scientists to play with. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
