  • He is really handsome and cute.x)

  • does he eat pancakes on pancake day?

  • He is not the first and he will not be the last. There are still an infinite Buddhas to come. I admire him with my highest respect and I hope to learn from him this present lifetime. Om Mani Padme Hung!

  • Comment removed

  • Ask yourself this question...? Is it Buddha -Boy or is it EGO - BOY?

  • show me proof of his ego. there is none. he has shown your only spirit. compare your life with his and ask yourself, am i happy? do i care about begin happy more than being right? do i understand what the ego is? am i jealouse? am i in any position to judge this man who has done no evil?

  • some one get that kid a mcdonalds xDD

  • This is very simple thing that everyone can be. but not like the buddha at all. it's only one of the all parts that the buddha ever did. in history many monks can do like this. he may be difference from the buddha a lot about the knowage.

  • he sure is handsome..but the claim of not eating, drinking..or shitting is complete crap!!

  • your focusing on the physical. you doubt the spirit, that is where your downfall begins. do you want to be happy, or do you want to be right? being unhappy isnt right in any way.

  • Buddha mean awakened

  • i think the crucial message here is the importance of the inner journey, of self discovery. inner peace, outward action. if you want to fix the world, fix yourself first... then we'd have one less scoundrel among us.

  • just like jesus the christ... a man who attained or incarnated into higher spiritual being. whether or not the "incarnation" of buddha, he is fulfilling a mythical archetype of spiritual teacher. and dont forget, we all have the same potential for enlightenment and higher states of consciousness.

  • I just wish he had a more enlightened message than "World Peace" I mean, If your enlightened... It would probably be a global event. I think.

  • Yes, I agree that his message so far is not so profound, but look at the majority of people interested in him, most people cannot understand more than the basics.

  • not so profound? what you want? it's a warning to everyone about the dangers of the world!!!! our life has been ephemeral...

  • I thought the old Buddha got enlightened and achieved nirvana...if so

    How can this boy be the incarnate of Siddhartha Gautama. It messes the whole Buddhism religion.

  • i agree, but from what i know he never said that he is the reicarnation of budda

  • Buddha is a state of mind not a person.

  • so if buddha is just a state of mind!! who is siddhartha gautama??????

  • Siddharta Gautama was a Buddha because he achieved a level of Buddha. He was the first and that's why we (the tradition) call him so. Also Ram Bomjon said he hasn't achieved the level of Buddha. He said himself:

    "Tell the people not to call me a Buddha. I don't have the Buddha's energy. I am at the level of a rimpoche."

    He cannot be the reincarnation of Siddharta, but there is a possibility that he'll be a Buddha one day. And I hope he will... : )

  • Nirvana, bodhi, or satori is the state of being.

    They mean enlightenment.

    Buddha is a title. It means one who has become enlightened.

  • So "rimpoche..." He says then that he's the "precious one" Very interesting he says this to say the least.

  • but the buddha boy said himself he is NOT Buddha, despite what others believe. He said he is a rinpoche (teacher)

  • he is just having an OBE: out of body experience and hes floating where he wants so he doesnt want to come back in his body not yet

  • The word Buddha is misused and "God" is oversued sometimes. However, there are other nouns describing a person who reaches enlightenment but not yet a Buddha: Arahant, Boddhisattva, Saint. These saints have much longer lifespan than ours, but for them to become a Buddha, they must perform acts of generosity, compassion, sacrifices in the utmost primordial wisdom. Then they again meditate to become a Buddha if they wish. Some like to be just Boddhisattva to help sentient beings.

  • The "Buddha Boy"'s meaning is the Boy who is following the Buddha method of getting free from garvity of Greed, Hatred, Delusion. Then upon reaching englightenment around 2011 or 2012 (Myan Calendar) the "Buddha Boy" will emerge and salvage us from this samsara world.

    Be brave and be open minded,and be hopeful, it doesn't hurt!

  • Well, he's no Buddha reincarnate, why would Buddha come back to Earth after achieving enlightenment and sharing his teachings? It goes against the very concepts of Buddhist philosophy. However, what Bamjon is doing is extremely impressive and worthy of the utmost praise. He is devoted to what he does and is, from what I've heard, using his fame to spread good messages.

  • That's exactly right. The boy hears the bell but doesn't know which church. The Buddhas don't reincarnate, by definition. That's why they're Buddhas and not mortals. And secondarily, the historic Buddha clearly rejected body mortification as detrimental to the enlightenment.

    And that boy doesn't look very malnourished to me. In fact, he looks a bit overweight. I'm pretty sure that his team sneaks food and water to him when no one is looking.

  • The physical body of the Enlightened Buddha died over 2000 years ago. The Buddha Nature, or spirit lives forever in form of a "seed", when conditions are met, it becomes "Lotus Flower" pure and strong and able to fight off gravity of greed, hatred, delusion.

    See thru it.

  • Breaking the chain of samsara means no more reincarnating. Look it up.

  • Whatever Incarnation the Buddha wills is available

  • I find the comments on the video of this person more interesting than the actual video. Makes me realize how little people understand about eastern religion. So many incorrect things said, a person would hardly know where to begin in correcting any of them.

  • Dat boy.. he been smokin some good buddha.

  • Lao-Tzu said "people who know don't talk, who talk don't know"

    Buddha said "look at the moon, not my finger"

    Got the message?

  • Westerners get caught to Tibetan Hindu Buddhism for sympathising with Dalai Lama. Tibetan Buddhism's distortion of Buddhism is exemplified by this boy's story as Buddha has attained Nirvana, not to be re-born again and humiliating and disgracing Buddha will have serious consequences or this is another ploy to attract tourists. Advise to westerners is to follow traditional, orthodox Buddhism as practiced in Thailand, Sri Lanka, etc. Scrutinise Tibetan monks' behaviour in Buddha Gaya!

  • interesting.

    How could Jesus be a Christian if Christianity was made in His Name? It must have come after Him. If He was missing from age 12 - 31, i'd assume he travelled everywhere he could possibly reach. Teaching Love and Cosmic Truth. Metaphysics and Meditation/Prayer. He must have learned his techniques from several different religous/spiritual practices and teachings. No wonder they say he could speak all languages. He learned them all, to break the communication barrier to express Truth.

  • Just let the boy!! The world needs a miracle!! Maybe he is that miracle.

  • Unfortunately, all those poor inocent people are being "blessed" by satan.

    I wouldn't be surprised if he thinks he's God. Why are people falling for this fake idol who claims he hasn't eaten in, what, 6 months? We ALL know that's impossible, even if reincarnation WAS true (which it isn't) and this so called "buddah" was ina human boy's body, human's can't go without food.

  • Wow, how the hell do you know whats what. One thing is for sure, we know nothing. Im not saying it is, but Im not saying hes not. Nothing is for sure and nothing is not true. We know we know nothing. By: Socrates and he was alot smarter than you will ever be.

  • i lol @ you again

  • he has his own belief as so do us. lets just keep it that way without disrespecting anyone.

    peace

  • More people should be like him so that the world would be very peaceful and no shortage of food and water.

  • he looks sick and pale.

  • no he doesn't

  • he is possessed by the devil.

  • If the devil is defeating the enemies of the body and material world, than you must face this devil for the better of humanity. Think about it....he is one LESS person not worried about their next meal, their next pleasurable sex, or something like this. If this be called something in the average person's life, it be called Peace of Mind, Absolute Fulfillment and humility....conqueror of enemies Internally creating ignorance, fear, and anger.

  • Whoohoo!!! Another child of the Golden age..according to prophecy they are born with the specific purpose of teaching and serving humanity at the end of this time cycle. Incarnating as masters with symbols of teaching authority to rule as wise in young bodies and having the power to humble the priesthoods of both science and religion.

  • he is no longer missing and is meditating underground in made for pit. see his website, he's been meditating for 3 years now no food or water paldendorje(dot)com/bio(dot)ph­p

  • Hey dude, there was a team from discovery channel as well, and other teams which they recorded for 96 hours continuously. Please search in Wiki with name Ram Bahadur Bomjon. And please rise from ur pig shit full of mind. Peace.

  • Thank goodness for India where real religious freedom thrives....thankyou India.

  • Tell that to all of the christians whose houses have been burnt to the ground by hindu extremists, and to the government of India which does nothing to defend persecuted minorities.

  • Perhaps the Christian discrimination message should be eliminated...Its a bad idea no pit forth by any Jesus, Appollo, Zues.....and all those other fake messiahs. Jesus was probably a Buddhist.

    Which God gonna beat up your God....God fanatics....thats America!....lol

  • Jesus was absolutely NO budddhist!! I can't believe you just said that!!

  • And JESUS WAS NO CHRISTIAN...where was he from age 12 to 31.....In India probably....According to Paul the creator of Christianity ....YOUR Jesus was born on another planet and was fake....christians are the biggest network of discrininators on earth.....INDIA HAS FREEDOM OF RELIGION....ANY KID IN AMERICA TRYING WHAT BUDDHA BOY HAS DONE WOULD BE SENT TO KIDDIE DETENTION AND THE PARENTS ARRESTED AND REEDUCATED....LIKE COMMUNIST!

    AMERICA....HERO WORSHIP ACCEPTED AS AUTHENTIC...BUSTED!

  • ??? if jesus wasn't a buddhist then buddha must have been a christian... both teach love but for some reason you dont want to hear it.

  • Christians have been the most violent abolishonists through out history, and the only reason its so big is because the romans FORCED it upon people, and outlawed and other religious practice.

  • Jesus was born in the most violent time of Roman history. Hence he died in the most barbaric way by the Romans. That amplified the glory of his death!

  • The Romans were "the most civilized" at that time, the barbaric were his enemies.

    And if you think dying in the most violent way makes it any better then you are damm wrong.

    Glory of his dead, geez what the heck are you talking about!

  • this guy is probably someone who will reach nirvana, and maybe help others do so too.

    for the buddhists here:

    i am still confused about how one can escape rebirth though, does anyone know?

  • I have a question about Nirvana...I watched a movie about a monk who reached nirvana I think... he was just siting there like this kid is....so the monks had a ceremony were they put a white rag over the enlightened ones head and left him alone.

    Maybe buddha boy disappeared because he really did reach nirvana and was taken to a temple to be honored.

  • well, i cant really say why he left for a while. i dont think you have to be honored after you reach enlightenment. since you are enlightened, you have no necessity for such things.

    i am beggining to understand this idea of nirvana now, but i am getting my insight from ancient chinese texts, not buddhist texts.

  • Im starting to understand why we honor people

    Its more about an idea than it is the person.

    the person becomes a relic of the idea it once shared.

    sadly Jesuses body has been seen as the idea...they idolize his person instead of his

    message..the person is nothing but a vessel..why worship a container when the water you need is inside it?

    people think the vessel is what matters as they forget its contents.

    But little do they know that the very contents in that vessel also exists in them.

  • yea, thats true.

  • Nirvana means to extingush the flame....we are a collective of creations of the mind. We are always anchored in the spirit you are a collective reflection made by you.

    Nirvana is not a place you go to you are already there....it means to extinguish the perception that you are actually here! The longer we claim we are here the longer we suffer...when we dump the ego we set the reflection to Divine Mind mode to where everything is bliss and knowledge permeates....good luck with your reflection!

  • Nirvana is a state where one understands the true nature and reason of our existence. By this the person understands that everything in this world is just an illusion, so desiring for these materials (which are not real at all) n suffering for them is useless. This understanding aligned with higher conscious energy, makes the existence of that person in this world meaningless and so he escapes the cycle of birth and death. He then returns to where he really belongs (may be a state of oneness)

  • thats what i cant accept, the idea that this world is an illusion, because everything MUST be real in some way, otherwise we would not percieve it. it must at least be real within our minds, and something must create the illusion within our minds.

  • I don't think that it's the world itself that is an illusion, it is what we have made of it that is illusory. All our institutions of economy and education, we have "progressed" ourselves away from truth and toward materialism and to utter dependence on these things. The real illusion is not in the world, it is in our minds, which is why religious teachings say that our minds must be renovated. We must learn to be dependent upon a higher spirit, and most ppl are not ready for that kind of change

  • "We must learn to be dependent upon a higher spirit, and most ppl are not ready for that kind of change"

    well, i would say that we have to learn to be altogether independent.

  • When you die if you are pretty void of karma be attached to nothing put your face into your visual.hang on while you let it all go.you will arrive in the divine mind of the "knowledge of all that is"! You will know where and what you are.

    We are anchored in the spirit we never leave it.we are an accumulation of reflection much like looking in a pond and becoming so inhanced we build a periphery and become bound to the karma just created and ego to run it.

  • 6 months without food or water?!

    I bet hes having a hell of a time in the astral plain to not want to stop,come down and have a glass of water and some bread.

    LOL

  • lol, I was thinking the same thing!

  • Whatever happened to this boy? I read the story some time ago and now I cannot find any more information.

  • he left the peapal tree to meditate deeper in the jungle where he wont be observed by an entire zoo of people..I dontthink it was his intentions to be made into a sideshow..

  • I'm sure he didn't intend to become a sideshow. He intended to meditate. People are stupid and will label him as strange or a saviour...he is a shining example of what a human being CAN BE!

  • I totally agree with you, mate.

  • hey man,how can u say a nepalse poor hmm.u loser arshole mind ur language

  • just daylight.. people can't see him at the night.. he might eat/drink at night.. poor nepal..

  • the boy claims he is not the reincarnation of siddhartha gautama buddha because siddhartha gautama buddha passed away to parinibbhana. nirvana is the eternal and will follow no rebirth. the boy said so. but i guess lay people find it difficult to understand what the situation the whole situation is.

  • yeah what's a human bean??? just kidding.

  • i am from the same village!this is just a way of making some money4our village!!

    this RAM is a actor!thats it!

    this arsehole is FAKE!

  • look everyone destiny is different,that why there is two type of human bean one born be normal human that you special, the other is gods human in other level of human but it just form in human body for little time in earth to save your life not be violence

  • what's a human bean?

  • being

  • thats my point

  • fake arshole!

  • you fool you never going to see anything americal thiN INYOUR LIFE IF YOUO DONT SEARCH

  • his purpose is to reach enlightenment like budhha. he isn't the reincarnation of buddha as buddha can't reincarnate. these are wrong informations. Gautam buddha had also meditated to reach enlightenment so his spirit is free and he won't reincarnate.

  • Give me the exact sentence in the original Theravada Sutras which says Gautama couldn't reincarnate. He is a Buddha, He can do anything he wants.

  • first of all, the purpose of becoming a buddha is not so that we can be able to do anything. it is to gain enlightenment, inner peace and nirvana (that infact stops the whole cycle of rebirth! as our soul will be free from the cycle of life and death) i can't read the Theravada sutra but i do have the information from translated sources which are easily available. thanks for asking. your queries will be welcomed.

  • not every1 follows theravada 02615.

    If I remember correctly though, there is a sutra that says no book has weight in itself. it must be discovered by the individual to be tru.

    in essence, even if it says something is so in a sutra, it doesn't make it so.

    metta

  • oh that his is son is reincarnated, gautam budda have a son it could be, who know, i thinks that true before he left this world, he teach everythig he know to his son , i dont know that much about his son, his son not reach enlightment yet,that he reborn again

  • Sir I do believe you are misinformed. Upon reaching the pari-nirvana state, the Buddha does infact break the cycle of death and rebirth. However, as the Buddha Avalokiteśvara has shown through the Buddha Gautama's teachings, Buddha's can remain in this state of existence for countless eons so that they might continue liberating those lost souls that still remain. Please research Avalokiteśvara, the Buddha of Compassion, for more information.

  • thanks for the info. the main thing i am trying to say is that he can't be referred as the buddha even if he does reach enlightenment. ( only the first person to reach enlightenment, Gautama Buddha, can be referred as the Buddha.)

  • There are two types of Buddhas: One who is awakened through teaching and one who is self-awakened. Guatama Buddha was a self-awakened Buddha, but he is one of many. There have been many Buddhas in the past, and many Buddhas in the future.

    This 'Buddha Boy', whose name is Banjan, can be a Buddha but it will be through the Buddha Gautama's teachings. Remember: 'Buddha' is only a title meaning 'awakened one'. There is Buddha-essence in all of us, and anyone can reach Buddhahood.

  • thanks for the info

  • Please my lady, wake up, Mr. Ron Hubbard was a teacher.

  • Teacher of what?

  • Hubbard was one of many who claim to be Maitreya Buddha.

  • buddha can't reincarnate. please get this straight.

  • ENG:

    it is according to hinyana that Buddha Shakyamuni does not exist any more after its Paranirvana! according to Mahayana Shakyamuni always works for the happiness of all being them and is in the Aknishtha(tib sky. OGMIN) How Padmasambhava it was the emanation of Shakyamani it is very possible that it is also one of its emanations!

  • hey u zhangi..he is not doing this to become a famous k!! he is doing this..that what he likes to do!!k..if u want u can also go to forrest and meditade...he dint say he is buddha boy before he went to forrest and meditade...but the world after noticing him that without water ,food or clothes in this mountain area n cold weather..they flash the news all over the world!!

  • discovery filmed him straight for 92 hours, the guys brother, who is in charge let them film him day and night to prove it was real. at the end, discovery said, "We need to rewrite science"

  • you should check out ug krishnamurti and his journey whole journey to acheive "enlightnment"

    to him a calamity happened and he says enlightenment doesnt exist. very interesting stuff, check him out.

  • this guy doesnt bielieve in teaching... withought teaching, how could we learn from one another?

  • hes so punk

  • You mean his hair style?

  • yeah

  • Definitely not reincarnation of Buddha. Rebirth has ended for all Buddhas and arahat. At best an aspiring Boddhisatta, which if confirmed, I would like to pay homage to him. Can accumulate some good karma.

  • Buddhas can still reincarnate, since there are various Buddhas not entering the state of full nirvana.

  • thats just a kid that likes to sleep alot. he is no different than 80% of all 15-18 year olds.the only difference is that he is in the jungle.if he lived in a house nobody would be making this big of a deal

  • Haha. I won't say that it is 80%. Few can sleep so much without playing games and drinking a booze.

  • The Buddha is in Parinirvana. How could He reincarnate? I agree that this boy might be an avatar but not the reincarnation of Buddha Shakyamuni.

  • This is really a shame to pure Buddhism. ...! PLS MAKE THE NEPOL PEOPLE EDUCATED

  • I don't get you. Can a modern monk who carries a handphone meditate for 6 months?

  • With the new technology these days,I don't think they can't get away with that.Someone might put hidden camera somewhere to catch his movements at night.

  • Yeah, but the area he is in is something of a remote village.

  • Wether this guy is the "Buddha" is highly questionable and anti-scientific, although I remain open-minded. The next question, has this guy meditated without food and water for six months or more is also highly questionable, although more probable than being a re-incarnation. What is highly dubious though is the remark of the Bhudda "his followers cover him up at night-time away from 'prying' eyes". Surely hed be used to "prying eyes", being on display all day? Thismakesme think its fake.

  • This is crazy. He is stupid. The Gauthama Buddha can't be reborn according to the Buddhism itself. So how can this be? If he says he is the reborn of the Buddha he should go to a mental hospital and should get medicine.

  • I don't think you are so wise that you can decide whether a Buddha is rebornt or not. He reborns without telling you.

  • hey zhangi he dint told that he is a reborn of buddha..i think u r mistaken!!but media told that he is a reincarnation of buddha!!!

    hey n plzz dnt tell him..he is stupid..i think he is doing right thing..meditatin is not bad..its gud for brian and ur brian power will increase,if u r good in science i think u kno this facts!!he is not playing with us neither us..but we are makin fun of him..becoz we never heard this in modern times!!!

  • This is really a shame to pure Buddhism. Normally Nepal people are not educated, that's why they believe in such funny things. Try to look at something with your mind opened.

  • The real shame are the so-called believers who pray to Buddha for wealth, money, and comfort. Majority are, sadly, chinese.

  • hey dnt tell nepal ppl are not educated..r u educated???do we need education to believe in god and to meditate??so if u think this developed countries are educated but why they use blood & tears to bring peace in thier country??..do you think by killing our own brother n sister will bring peace forever!!...

  • Again the next Buddha will be in this world after another 2500 year later. So this is too early to that happen. May be he got some super powers after the meditation. That is possible. And one more thing, if he is such a great person, then he doesn't expect this kind of publicity. This is just a fake. If you attained some mind powers you are not basically going to tell it to anybody. You must live as a normal person.

    May triple jem bless you!

  • Not neccessary, a Buddha is beyond the concept of time and can appear anytime he wants.

  • i think u should undrstand..he is doin a very right thing..at his age normally all the guys are ineterested in SEX,GIRLS,MONEY,ENTERTAINMENT!­!!but he believes he can b in peace by doing meditation!!!

    I THINK YOU SHOULD B LEARN FROM HIM!!

    if u think u ppl are educated..why there is global warmin?????????

    dnt mix science into religion!!!!!!!!!!!

    n u kno wat...u r FAKE ASSHOLEEEE!!!

  • I don't think,he look for any attention at all.How many people can meditate for six months without any food or drink just to get attention?

  • Ok. Let'smake him work in a refugee camp so we can teach the rebels how to avenge their oppressers. Happy?

  • I am hearing an echo. Can you repeat that?

  • jeezzzzzzzz LEAVE HIM ALONE !!

  • Buddhism is so beautiful.I am so much in love with the whole concept of being one with the universe. It is Buddhism and Hinduism(up to a extent)..which has given every human being a "chance" to be God Himself.There is nothing external , everything is internal and meditation will take you the depths of esctacy.

  • Yes. Thanks.

  • Buddha and other bodishattvas such as Quan Yin vow to reincarnate until all beings attain enlightenment. Buddhism is the belief that the temple of God is within and everything is interconnected by the universal Chi, unlike Christians, Muslims, etc., who created a God who resides in "heaven" or "up there" or somewhere other than in themselves.

  • It's impossible the buddha cannot be reborn agian, he left the cycle of birth and death by enlightenment. Yet there is something about this boy. He is not the Buddha but may be able to become a Buddha.

  • i find it kinda strange that he disappears after trying to attain enlightenment for 6 months w/o moving...and i dont think hes buddha either. Wasn't buddha supposed to be escaping from rencarnation? irdk cuz im not buddhist

  • Its misguided people or people who do not understand Buddhism that say that he's a reincarnation of Gautama Buddha. This boy may become another 'new' Buddha but not Gautama Buddha.

  • only islam will get you enlightenment and inner peace

  • Indeed, its followers have spread the peace message all over the globe!

  • religions have NOTHING to do with spirituality. You do NOT need to label yourself as a certain religion to be able to connect with higher power! WAKE UP people you're being brained wash without even knowing it!

  • whoo! go, Bamjon!! I wish this guy the best of luck on his path to Enlightenment! (though, I am a Muslim)

  • All religions are an attempt to control the minds of the people..All they need to do is tell you that your religion is the right and only way..they do the same in Christianity.

  • something very wrong about "re-incarnation" of buddha. the buddha strived for nirvana so that he would not be reborn again. this boy has a peacefullness and determination that i've not see or felt before. truely an extraordinary being.

  • The buddha took a vow to keep incarnating till all beings were free!

  • bullshit..maybe you should take a look of new born baby in deep sleep.
