I’d like to mummify you but I wouldn’t encase you in gold.

Trump!!! :)

Buddhists especially ought to know that preserving and paying homage to old dried bones is ridiculous. It’s contrary to everything the Buddha taught. But, it’s their funeral (pun intended).

A rather contradictory display. A thick coat of molten gold poured over the dessicated bones of a fasting, now deceased monk. The result looks like some sort of Oscar to be given to a Non-Profit.

"Li Ren said the golden statue "is now being placed on the mountain for people to worship," the wire service reported."
Didn't I see this in a movie?? And then some stone tablets were thrown at it and all HELL broke loose??

The abbot told AP that the body showed "little sign of deterioration apart from the skin having dried out."

There is probably not much difference anyway between the skin of a normal 90-year-old, and the skin of a dead, mummified 90-year-old.

Mummified in gold? Sounds like a job for Indiana Jones.

That would be respectful to do that to Barack.
