" Burning Monk - The Self-Immolation

On
June 11, 1963, Thich Quang Duc, a Buddhist monk from the Linh-Mu Pagoda
in Hue, Vietnam, burned himself to death at a busy intersection in
downtown Saigon, Vietnam.. Eye witness accounts state that Thich Quang
Duc and at least two fellow monks arrived at the intersection by car,
Thich Quang Duc got out of the car, assumed the traditional lotus
position and the accompanying monks helped him pour gasoline over
himself. He ignited the gasoline by lighting a match and burned to
death in a matter of minutes. David Halberstam, a reporter for the New
York Times covering the war in Vietnam, gave the following account: I
was to see that sight again, but once was enough. Flames were coming
from a human being; his body was slowly withering and shriveling up,
his head blackening and charring. In the air was the smell of burning
human flesh; human beings burn surprisingly quickly. Behind me I could
hear the sobbing of the Vietnamese who were now gathering. I was too
shocked to cry, too confused to take notes or ask questions, too
bewildered to even think…. As he burned he never moved a muscle, never
uttered a sound, his outward composure in sharp contrast to the wailing
people around him.

Thich Quang Duc had prepared himself for his
self-immolation through several weeks of meditation and had explained
his motivation in letters to members of his Buddhist community as well
as to the government of South Vietnam in the weeks prior to his
self-immolation. In these letters he described his desire to bring
attention to the repressive policies of the Catholic Diem regime that
controlled the South Vietnamese government at the time. Prior to the
self-immolation, the South Vietnamese Buddhists had made the following
requests to the Diem regime, asking it to: Lift its ban on flying the
traditional Buddhist flag; Grant Buddhism the same rights as
Catholicism; Stop detaining Buddhists; Give Buddhist monks and nuns the
right to practice and spread their religion; and Pay fair compensations
to the victim's families and punish those responsible for their deaths.

When
these requests were not addressed by the Deim regime, Thich Quang Duc
carried out his self-immolation. Following his death, Thich Quang Duc
was cremated and legend has it that his heart would not burn. As a
result, his heart is considered Holy and is in the custody of the
Reserve Bank of Vietnam. "
 

Similar situation likely here if  not fraud.  There was a pbs documentary about Tibetan monks surviving in sub zero temp. for long period without any proper clothes. May be body mind control capacity but still defies the common scientific knowledge known to mankind hence unknown.
