Faithful flock as abbot leaves his body to science
In his will, which he made in mid-2000, the abbot asked that his body be donated to Khon Kaen University’s Faculty of Medicine within 24 hours. His body will be used for medical study for three years.
After his body is returned, he wants a simple funeral and he prohibits his disciples from seeking a royal cremation. His remains are to be placed in the Mekong River.
