Artist Bishal Maharjan’s artwork depicts a monk who chooses to transcend his physical form through meditation, demonstrating his extraordinary control over his body. Monks can endure profound states of meditation for up to five days without needing sustenance, slowing down the heart rate to minimal nutrients. This state transcends conventional notions of time and space. Contemporary science is exploring the potential for healing and genetic alterations through energy control, with reaching this level representing the ultimate step towards liberation from the cycle of reincarnation and a transcendent state.
