Until now, there are cases when the bodies of deceased believers remained incorrupt for several centuries.
This phenomenon was quite often mentioned in various ancient manuscripts, annals, chronicles and other written historical monuments. These monuments said that the deceased were like living people, for their lips were supposedly “red” and their skin “pale pink”.
The Christian Church attributed this mysterious phenomenon to the exceptional pious lifestyle and righteousness of the departed. Science denies the medieval phenomenon. Meanwhile, such cases also take place in reality, practically contemporary to us.
As an example, we can cite the case in the Mordovian village of Kirzhemany, located on the high bank of the Me river. At the beginning of the twentieth century. it was considered very large by local standards - there were 800 households there. In 1910, an elderly priest, Father Constantine, with his wife and ten children, was sent to his church. The new abbot quickly won the love of the parishioners. In addition to performing his direct duties in the church, he was also engaged in educational activities - he built schools in two neighboring villages and himself went there to teach children to read and write.
And on November 8, 1918, a tragedy occurred in Kirzhemani. On the eve of the village committee of the poor, in which everything was run by two workers sent to establish Soviet power, decided to hold a meeting on the occasion of the anniversary of the revolution. Yes, only the people did not go to him, but to the temple, because on that day they celebrated a church holiday especially revered in Kirzhemani - "on Dmitry". This aroused the anger of the revolutionary kombedovites, and they decided to take revenge on the priest.
The next day after the holiday, they broke into the church during the service, tore off Fr. Constantine's outerwear, dragged him out into the street and began to beat him. The priest did not resist, although with his remarkable strength he could have stood up for himself. Apparently, he decided to carry his cross to the end. Then the fiends harnessed Father Constantine to a cart and began to ride around the village. When the priest could no longer carry the cart, they put a collar on him and drove him through the streets, completely numb, and continued to beat him. Frightened residents were afraid to intervene and stop the massacre. They closed the shutters and sat at home.
In the end, the brutal commanders dragged the weakened priest to the porch of the church by the hair and crucified him on the jambs of the front door. There he gave his soul to God. But this was not enough for the tormentors. To humiliate the priest, they left the body hanging at the entrance to the temple. The next morning, the church elder and the watchman took him off, washed him from the blood, and put on new clothes. Hastily put together a coffin from pine boards and carried it to the cemetery. But the police officers did not allow him to bury the priest there, so they dug his grave nearby in a vacant lot. Decades passed, but the memory of the great martyr pastor lived on.
The villagers looked after the grave, planted flowers, erected new crosses when the old ones were dilapidated. Out of respect for him, no one was buried nearby. And on the occasion of the onset of the new century, a priest from the Archangel Michael Church in the regional center, Father Alexander decided to reburial the remains of the innocent martyr. He invited three of his parishioners to help, including a local merchant Nikolai Kondratyev. And then, according to him, a real miracle happened.

“They began to excavate the grave of Father Constantine,” Father Alexander later said. - When the first layer of earth was removed, they found three completely rotted hemp from old oak crosses. And then I felt some kind of special fragrance. Not the scent of perfume or herbs - something else. The mood was kind of elated. I dug surprisingly quickly, none of us was tired. Although the soil turned out to be dense, compressed - clay with black earth."
At a depth of about two meters, they stumbled upon a coffin. It was intact, only in the lid the pine boards parted a little. But they did not rot, but only darkened. We decided to take them apart and take them upstairs. They took off one and saw the boots - in excellent condition, as if they had been put on only yesterday. The clothes on the priest also turned out to be intact, and the bright yellow robes did not fade in the least. The most important thing was that Fr. Konstantin lay with his hands crossed in a cross, as if they had buried him yesterday. The priest held the Gospel in the left, and the cross in the right. His hands were completely preserved, the skin on them was even light. And the papillary pattern on the skin is also preserved. Only the index finger was broken and held on to one tendon. Hair on the head, beard, even some areas of soft tissue were also preserved.
The bridge of the nose, part of the frontal bone were depressed - apparently from a blow. When the grave was dug up, Father Alexander invited a forensic expert. By the appearance of the body, he made an unambiguous conclusion: Father Konstantin died of severe blood loss. Father Alexander himself later expressed his feelings from the miracle he saw: "The confusion of the soul happened, there was a commotion inside me." The imperishable relics were transferred to the Archangel Michael Church, where parishioners constantly come to them. Many say they have healing powers.
In 2004, employees of the Russian Center for Forensic Medicine under the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation examined the incorruptible body of the Buryat lama Dashi-Dorzho Itiglov, who died in 1927. Spectral analysis of his hair, nails and a piece of skin did not reveal any destructive changes. Body tissues are no different from those of living people. The internal organs of the lama were also intact. The blood in the wounds is in a jelly-like state. At the same time, the forensic examination did not find any traces of embalming.
As a result, scientists officially announced that they were faced with a real miracle, which science cannot explain at its current level of development. Journalists dealing with the topic of various anomalous and unexplained phenomena often write about one amazing person - the unique scientist Oleg Germanovich, whom friends jokingly call “the grave”. The fact is that he is a biophysicist by profession, and for the last 20 years he has been dealing with the problem of the afterlife. And not from the occult, but from the scientific point of view.
Many researchers often turn to him about the mysterious phenomenon of incorruptibility. O. Germanovich, on the basis of numerous facts collected by him over two decades, confirmed that this phenomenon is also observed in the remains of ordinary people. It's just that their graves are opened much less often, so little is known about such finds. He himself specially collected such cases and, as an example, told about several, the most reliable.
So, for example, at the end of the 30s. XX century, when large construction began in Moscow, the old pre-revolutionary cemeteries, located within the city limits, were liquidated. The opening of the graves was necessarily supervised by officers of the NKVD specially seconded there, in order to confiscate gold jewelry and jewelry, which were often found in the graves. And sometimes a well-preserved body was found. He was immediately taken to the secret laboratory of the NKVD, and the workers were ordered to be silent. O. Germanovich did not manage to find in the archives any information about what research was carried out with the "fresh" dead.
But the fact that they met was confirmed to him by a pensioner-builder. At one time, he supervised the preparation of a site for an aircraft engine-building plant on the site of a very old cemetery near the Semenovskaya Zastava. According to him, once the workers dug up a grave, in which there was a completely naked deceased with a thick beard.
Only blackened silver buttons and a pectoral cross remained from the decayed clothes on the chest. But the bones were tightly wrapped like parchment, brown with age, but whole skin. And members of one of the patriotic youth groups that are engaged in the search and burial of the remains of Soviet soldiers who died during the Great Patriotic War, told the scientist that once in the Smolensk region they opened an unnamed mass grave, in which in 1941 local residents buried more than 30 bodies of Soviet fighters remaining on the battlefield.
All of them lay in the same land and in the same climatic conditions for more than fifty years, so only yellowed bones and shreds of uniform remained of them. But the guys were amazed that one body remained practically intact by decay. Judging by the tarnished ruby cube in the buttonhole, it was a junior lieutenant, that is, still a young man.
“It turns out that holiness does not play a role in this phenomenon? - O. Germanovich repeatedly asked researchers a rhetorical question. - And the biochemical composition of the soil too, although some researchers explain the incorruptibility of the remains to them. So what's the deal?" And he himself answered it: “According to esoteric teaching, what religion calls the soul is the energy-informational essence of a person. Its informational component is manifested in the influence on consciousness, psyche, which largely determines our behavior. This is what has traditionally been the main focus. But the energetic role of the soul has essentially remained forgotten."
Only relatively recently did parapsychologists come to a sensational conclusion: just as the heart regulates blood circulation in the body, so the soul or entity controls the movement of vital energy coming from outside, which is called qi or prana.
If the blood supplies the cells with "food", then this energy serves as "fuel" for its processing. Moreover, when some organ does not receive enough of such energy, it ceases to function normally. But qi also serves another important purpose: it creates an energy barrier against disease-causing bacteria and viruses. Again, if it weakens, foreign microorganisms enter the cells and destroy them.
It turns out that without a soul or energy-informational essence, a person as a biological system cannot exist. Perhaps many readers have doubts about how all of the above relates to the imperishable remains. However, since ancient times it has been known that after the death of a person, his soul, located in the subtle world, is able, with the help of mediums, to enter into informational contact with living people.
The energy component of the human soul can also manifest itself in the material world in the form of the so-called. "Necrotic connection" with the remains of the dead. Obviously, in some cases, as a result of this connection, there is such a strong energy supply of the tissues of the dead body that a protective barrier arises in them, which prevents the decomposition of the body. And as long as such feeding continues, the decomposition process will not begin, and the deceased will practically forever remain in the form in which he was buried.
However, it is still unclear how the "energy supply" appears in dead bodies. The answer to this question (or at least some assumptions) can be obtained only on the basis of statistical data on such cases with a detailed description of the life and death of non-decayed bodies.
However, orthodox science is in no hurry with such full-scale research. For if, on the basis of statistical material, it becomes clear that bodies in some cases do not lend themselves to the process of decay, it will be necessary to revise the basic scientific postulates in the field of biology, physics and other sciences. And none of the orthodox scientists needs this …
