		<description>Buddha boy never said he was Buddha. It was other people who said such a thing. He never called anyone to him, people saught him out. I say even if he is eating, drinking and physically protecting his body with sticks I still recognize and bow to him. Not just because of his determination, willpower and conviction but also because of his devotion to the message of peace and light. 

Whatever comes with this in money and power may he use it wisely and stay on the rightious path of Dharma, which he promotes so.

To sceptics, it is good to think and ok to doubt. But an open heart and trained mind can make the seemingly impossible possible. What is a hoax in a world where even our bodies are illusions. Also, if someone is planning ill and focus on the money, they can not live the lie all their life. Ram has been living for spirituality all his life. Where other boys of 15 (now 21) think of girls and cars he went to meditate under trees and chose to speak of world peace and compassion. Talking about being born for and into something greater. It exists we better believe it.</description>

		<description>Ram Bomjon the Buddha Boy Is Just Another Huckster!

Ram Bomjon Is A Fake

They call him the Buddha Boy, or the Boy With Divine Powers. They claimed that Ram Bomjon could go for eight months without eating or drinking or even moving, while he was in a meditation like that of the Siddhartha Guatama himself. What they don&#039;t tell you is that Ram Bomjon was not allowed to be examined by medical doctors, and that no one was ever allowed to see what Ram Bomjon did at night - eating, drinking, dancing, and behaving like the teenage boy he was. Ram Bomjon is a fake!

More recently, Ram Bomjon did a most unBuddhalike thing, attacking a group of villagers, beating them with sticks along with his servants. Bomjon says he was &quot;forced to beat them&quot;, but the Buddha taught that violence is never necessary, and sat calm in his own meditation even when Mara sent an entire army against him. A Buddha Boy Ram Bomjon is not.</description>

		<description>Reappearance in Ratanpuri jungle

On 10 November 2008, Bomjon reappeared and gave blessings to approximately 400,000 pilgrims over a 12-day period in the remote jungle of Ratanpuri, 150 km (95 miles) southeast of Kathmandu, near Nijgadh. His hair was shoulder-length and his body was wrapped in a white cloth. He made two speeches in which he urged people to recognize the compassion in their hearts, and their connection to one another through the all-encompassing soul.[21] His devotees believe he attained enlightenment at Bodh Gaya in Bihar, India, which borders Nepal – the place where Siddartha Gautama attained enlightenment.[22][23]
[edit] Non-appearance in 2009 at the Gadhi Mai Mela

Palden Dorje planned to give blessings on 18–23 November 2009 at the site of the Gadhi Mai Mela, a Hindu vedic religious festival where hundreds of thousands of animals are sacrificed, something he has condemned. However, alleging &#039;security reasons&#039;, priests were unwilling to allot a space for him. On 30 October 2009 he spoke out in public against the approaching Gadhi Mai killings.
[edit] Physical assault investigation

A Western media outlet quoted a local Nepali newspaper claiming that Bomjon &quot;had admitted&quot; to slapping some local villagers after being physically assaulted by them on July 22, 2010. According to such claims, the incident took place in the Bara district and police have been involved in the investigation after 17 complaints. Bomjon was quoted to say that the locals were interrupting his meditation by climbing onto his platform, mimicking him, and attempting to manhandle him, and he was &quot;therefore forced to beat them&quot;. According to the newspaper, he slapped them &quot;two or three times&quot;, while the attackers allege that they were assaulted more seriously.[24]</description>

		<description>It is so wonderful for people to be able to see a Holy Being practising the stages of the path to enlightenment in such a public way. Anyone who watches this documentary with an open mind can’t help but see that Ram Bomjon has accomplished an exalted state of meditative concentration and is genuinely a great yogi.

For anyone who wants to understand more about the sort of meditative practices that Ram is engaged in, or for anyone who has developed an interest in the teachings of the Buddha as a result of seeing this there is a tradition of Buddhism that exists throughout the world called the New Kadampa Tradition (see Kadampa.org). This tradition was founded by Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso who has written 21 books (see Tharpa Publcations.com) which provide a full transmission of the teachings of  Vajrayana Buddhism (similar to that being practiced by Ram and originating from Tibetan Buddhism) into English (as well as many other major languages).

I write this as I have great faith in the teachings of the Buddha and through having received many teachings from Venerable Geshe Kelang Gyatso and having studied his books over many years it is very clear to me exactly what Ram is practicing.

May all beings have the opportunity to find the true meaning of human life and experience the supreme peace and bliss of enlightenment.</description>

		<description>Why did the camera crew just slip in some infrared cameras and then they could see what happened at night.  food, water.....

If you want something proven, let the crew and scientists set the rules not the perpetrator of the hoax.

Believing is seeing.  If you believe in divinity you will see miracles at every corner.</description>
