Would you become a sokushinbutsu if you would be granted access into any fantasy world you want as a reward after your death?

A buddhist monk that went through a 3000 day course of self mummification, special diet (foods with practically no nutritional value) dehydration and for the final 1000 days live burial in a stone tomb so small that it only allowed the person entombed to be in the lotus position.

Also they drank some poisonous tea so their bodies wouldn't get eaten by insects, bacteria, maggots and so on.

I would perform any kind of silly religious services and rituals if it meant an afterlife I actually believed in.
I'm pretty sure it doesn't work that way, though.

No. Self-torture is not the path to enlightenment, living with purpose, piety and wisdom is the correct way.

Nonsense, one cannot become enlightened unless one repents and atones for one's sins.

And I suppose torturing oneself instead of trying to compensate to all the persons we wronged is the right thing to do, uh?

Compensation is a form of atonement.
It's just that castigation was always the cool thing.

Keep in mind that the process takes over eight years, nearly three of which are spent buried and totally dependant on others.

That said, if I was given proof that the reward was guaranteed, and I had the support needed to help me along, it wouldn't be an easy answer.

>>4295143
I doubt many lived for longer than a week, two at best in the live burial stage because all they had was a tube to bring them fresh air and a bell to tell the monks outside they were still alive.
