The 900-Year+ Miracle of Sri Ramanujacharya’s Eternal Presence.
In the heart of Srirangam, Tamil Nadu, lies a sight that defies time itself.
The actual body of one of India’s greatest saints, perfectly preserved for over 900 years + without chemicals, without mummification.
🧵A #Thread.......👇Image
2. This is Sri Ramanujacharya (1017–1137 CE) the spiritual giant who revived Bhakti across Bharat, spreading the philosophy of Vishishtadvaita (Qualified Non-Dualism).
3. Unlike other ancient remains, this is not a statue, not a replica, and not embalmed like Egyptian mummies.
It is the saint’s real body, seated in eternal meditation.
4. The preservation process is purely natural & devotional:
Daily application of sandalwood paste .
Use of saffron for fragrance & sanctity
No modern chemicals. Only sacred care, love, and divine grace.
5. His body rests in the Sri Ranganathaswamy Temple, directly behind his golden idol.
Devotees can have Darshan of both-the idol in front and his actual form just behind it.
6. For 9 centuries, this miracle has endured floods, wars, invasions, and time itself untouched by decay.
Many believe it’s the power of his spiritual austerity that keeps him eternally present.
7. Sri Ramanujacharya’s teachings still guide millions:
Worship the Lord with love
See all beings equally
Serve humanity as service to God
If you ever visit Srirangam, stand before him…
You are not looking at history you are standing in the living presence of a saint from the 12th century.
Jai Ramanuja🚩
