Nepal's 'Buddha Boy' reappears

Nepal's 'Buddha Boy' reappears

au.news.yahoo.com

A Nepalese teenager reputed to have Buddha-like powers has reappeared in the south of the country to preach to thousands of supporters, witnesses said.

Ram Bahadur Bomjam now aged 18 - dubbed the Buddha Boy - rose to fame in 2005 after his family claimed he could sit for months on end without sleep, food or water.

In March 2007, Bomjam's supporters said he was planning to meditate for three years in an underground bunker, although he was spotted on two occasions.

Now Bomjam has appeared again to preach for around 45 minutes and plans to continue addressing the public daily until November 18, said a local police official for the Bara district, 100km south of Kathmandu.

"The whole jungle area where he has appeared has turned into a festival and around 10,000 people came to see him," the police officer said.

Local volunteers have collected thousands of dollars from people who visited the Buddha Boy in the past, prompting accusations that he was merely at the centre of a money-making scam.

During the height of his fame a French television journalist filmed him nibbling on fruit while supposedly starving himself.

An AFP correspondent also found him curled up sound asleep while he was supposedly meditating in private.

I remember hearing about this a few years ago, besides the discredit, did any of what he actually talked about get out and if so what was it about?

Aha! There you are!

Was wondering when he was gonna show back up

Well you are 18 now Buddha, you are just in time, and old enough, to save the World.

Excellent, I remember watching a documentary a few years ago about this kid. There indeed seemed to be something special about him and his abilities in meditation.

Here's an article on the Sydney Morning Herald - it's actually the main story on the front page right now:

Devotees flock to Buddha reincarnation in Nepal

Here's the front page pic:

He just needed a brief holiday.

His press agent said that he needed to resurface now to preserve his popularity and restore faith in his abilities.

While away he also held a brief meeting with Madonna's representatives to discuss the possibility of her adopting him as well as a musical collaboration between the two with the tentative title "Sado-Meditism". The deal fell through though when they couldn't reach an agreement on royalties and distribution rights of the proposed CD that would feature a solo track of two hours of complete silence called "I sit inside the 'you' tree". A recording of the Buddha Boy's actual meditation!

(In my best Dr. Smith impression)
"Living God", indeed.

What miracles do you think the Buddha should perform?

This kid, as far as I understand, spends most of his time in Meditation. That's the extent of it.

Warnings Of False Prophets!

MATTHEW 18 : 7, 24 : 23 - 27
MARK 9 : 42
I TIM 1 : 3 - 11, 4 : 1 - 5, 6 : 3 - 10
II PETER 2 : 1 - 8, 10 - 12, 17 - 18
JUDE 1 : 3 - 16, 4, 6, 10 - 11

The "Buddha Boy" is just another lying snake false prophet for the sick pagan world to fantasize about, whilst they meditate on their demons, instead of having the courage to come to the bread of life, called umm ... Jesus Christ. Any miracles that this young man performs as long as he denies the Christ & denies that He is the true Son of the only living God, is a liar, not led by the Holy Spirit, but demonic led & inspired. Let us not feign ignorance, here. Anyone who has seen the news throughout their life & has seen TV shows & movies depicting Jesus, knows via their conscience that JC is the true Vine, & the bread of life. Think about it. -- I am a firm witness to the miracles that Jesus performed in my life in 11/2006, when I opened up my heart to Him in prayer. I shall post this in a few moments. READ IT, OK? -- Know that Jesus Christ is the true Vine, & He loves you, very much, & only He can grant you the right to enter heaven, at the end of this physical life. Not some idol-worshipping Buddhist, who taps in to demons. Stand by to view my testimony of the miracles that JC performed in my life. God be with you. ) In ase the post does not go through, here's my link to view whut happened. - My testimony, is listed in the middle of the post:
