Cold preserves things well. These Inkan mummies found in Chili look like they could open thier eyes and start walking around again: http://www.freenewmexican.com/news/32770.htmlThe Egyptians tried to remove all the liquids and mushy bits of the body and placed them in preserving jars that were buried with the mummies. They would even scoop the brains out. Normally, wet things rot faster than dry.

A simple answer is Living things regenerate their cells continuously, So they can maintain healthy function. When a living organism can not regenerate cells then they begin to degenerate and that leads to death. When Organic life dies it begins to decompose because the cells die. The individual cells can continue to live for several days after a organic organism or a person dies. But eventually the cells brake down and die. So the body decomposes. In certain Conditions organism's can live for thousands of years After the entity dies, But this is rare.

i heard that asian monks also can conserver their bodys with deep meditation. they found a corpse of a monk who died while he meditated it was in good condition. what do you think of that?
Meditating doesn't improve conservation, however if someone is skinny and overall 'dry' (as in not much meat with more water inside, that will improve conservation in general.
Cheers
