RATANPUR, Nepal — The teenage boy revered as a reincarnation of Buddha sat silently in the jungle as he blessed his devotees Wednesday with a light tap on the head, which they consider the touch of the divine.

The followers of Ram Bahadur Bamjan, 18, believe he has been meditating without food and water since he was first spotted in the jungles of southern Nepal in 2005, when believers say he spent months without moving, sitting with his eyes closed beneath a tree.

No no. That can’t be him. I saw that guy last Sunday at the local flea market selling pirated CDs. That has to be an imposter.

Buddha was one amazing dude. Ironically he would not have approved of all the statues in his honor.

Idiot press story: The newsreader on the local radio station had a story yesterday about this boy in Nepal. As the final line she said in amazement "and thousands have traveled all the way from India too see him." I guess she had never actually seen a map of Nepal or India if she could actually say that.
