About
Part of the exhibition THE BODY IS ON.
The plaque reads:
“[They ] are willing to give their bodies to save others. Such a one takes no more food or drink, only bathing and eating a little honey, till after a month his excreta are nothing but honey; then death ensues. His compatriots place the body to macerate in a stone coffin full of honey […] After a hundred years, the seals are removed and […] only a small amount taken internally is needed for the cure.” Tao Zongyi, c. 1366 CE.
