To keep the body in good shape, sandalwood paste and saffron are used, with no further chemicals added.
Fingernails can be seen, indicating that the object is a human body.
Lord Ranganatha personally commanded that his bodily body be put in the southwest corner of the Srirangam temple's fifth circuit.
The original body of Ramanujacharya, on the other hand, is kept in a normal sitting position and is open to the public for viewing.
