Today i was reading daily times newspaper and i came across an article regarding this unusual phenomena and pretty shocking. Most of people might know this already but i wanted to share this to you guys.
"The thing to remember is that the poor sisters of those days were buried in a pine box and in no way embalmed like today. This is one of the miracles of incorruptible bodies that can only be traced to most of the declared saints of the Roman Catholic Church. These are the pictures of St Bernadette who died 122 years ago in Lourdes, France and was buried there. Her body was only discovered 30 years ago. After church officals decided to examine it, they discovered her body is still fresh until today and if you ever go to Lourdes, France you can see her in the church in Lourdes. Her body isn't decomposing because during her lifetime, the Mother Of Jesus would always appear to her and give messages and advice to all mankind on the right way to live on this earth. Many miracles have taken in this place of Lourdes and still do until today.
These pictures show her body after 122 years. Scientists have wondered about this miracle, because it defies the law of nature and instead of expecting a foul smell of a dead body, a fragnance of flowers can be experienced when the glass of coffin is opened. Some say they experience the fragnance by just going near the coffin."
