Scan shows 1000 year old mummy inside statue of Buddha

Had to make sure you folks saw this. I try to imagine what it felt like for the monks in the temple, when the body of the head monk who taught you most of your life has actually been transformed into Buddha and you see him every time you look at the altar. Wonder if it gave the younger monks nightmares?
Although actually that doesn't look like Buddha so much as perhaps an actual image of the old master. Even freakier.

Mummy!
interesting! I wonder how many other such statues have remains inside of them.
