Dashi-Dorzho Itigilov[a] (13 May 1852 – 15 June 1927)[2] was a Buryat Buddhist lama of the Tibetan Buddhist tradition.[3][page needed]
Born in the countryside of Buryatia, Itigilov's parents left him at an early age, forcing him to pursue sheep-herding to make ends meet. When he was 15, Itigilov joined the Anninsky Monastery, where he learned to read Tibetan and Sanskrit, enabling him to read Buddhist texts and serve in the Buddhist community. After being elected as the 12th Pandito Khambo Lama and the religious leader of Russian Buddhists, Itigilov raised money to provide food, clothing, and medical care to World War I soldiers, among other philanthropic acts.[4] In 1927, he died while in a lotus position and chanting a prayer for the dead.[4] After he was buried in a pine box in a cemetery in Khukhe-Zurkhen in Buryatia, Itigilov was exhumed in 1957, showing an intact body.[4] Itigilov was reburied in an unmarked grave in a coffin packed with salt.
In 2002, a young lama named Bimba Dorzhiyev became curious about the burial and remains of Itigilov. An 88 year-old worshiper, whose father-in-law had been present when the coffin was opened in 1957, informed the lama of the grave's location. On 11 September 2002, the grave was opened and the body was exhumed in the presence of a photographer, two forensic experts, and a dozen witnesses, where is was found to be preserved. It was then brought to Ivolginsk Datsan and placed on the second floor of one of the monastery's temples, behind curtains and a locked door.[4]
