One thing that would impress me would be if a yogi could be administered general anesthesia and would still be able to indicate consciousness. Perhaps a brain scan would do it, or if they could keep the use of some sense they might be able to be presented with information while their body was out, and then recall it after they were revived.
Swami Rama was able to go into deep sleep (verified by an EEG) at will and then explain what went on the entire time he was "asleep". The experiment was done at the Menninger Institute in Kansas.
