Bernadette was found, unbelievably, in a completely uncorrupted state
People revered her as a miracle-working saint
She really is in such a beautiful condition
Why on earth has her body not decayed and remained so beautiful?
The answer is
the “sirao” phenomenon after death
“Sirao” is a phenomenon in which the body’s fat turns wax-like, preventing decay
It occurs only very rarely in environments that are humid and sealed off from outside air
Because it happens by chance in natural environments, such as when a body has been submerged in a lake for many years
it is almost impossible to induce the “sirao” process intentionally
