Whatever the mind can conceive, the body can achieve!
A video of a Thai Buddhist monk has been circulating the internet. 

Thai monk meditating in boiling herbs and oil

The image shows that the monk is concentrating.


There are no signs of pain or any injuries by doing the said act.

It shows a monk placed in a large metal pot with boiling oil...calmly meditating!

In the province of Nong Bua Lamphu Thailand, a monk has become popular by sitting in a boiling oil together with  a blend of herbs.  An oil  has been applied first to reduce the heat. 

Inspite of reducing the heat through this application, it still imposes a lot of danger to whoever will be placed in a large pot of boiling oil!


People gathered around to witness the act. 

Used oils and relics are being sold after the incredible act. 

What is Meditation?

Meditation is a practice in which an individual trains the mind or induces a mode of consciousness, either to realize some benefit or for the mind to simply acknowledge its content without becoming identified with that content,[1] or as an end in itself.[2]
