ram bomjon is a 16-year-old boy born and living in the village of Ratnapur who allegedly is in the process of transforming into the next incarnation of the Buddha. It has been claimed that the so-called “Buddha Boy” has been sitting under a pipal tree in uninterrupted meditation since May of 2005. According to the set of people who surround and control access to Ram Bomjon, he asserted just before sitting down that he was entering into a six-year meditative state in order to attain enlightenment, a la the original Buddha Siddhartha Gautama. According to the same set of people who surround and control access to Bomjon, he:

• has not stirred from his meditation since May 2005,
• has had nothing to eat since May 2005,
• has continued meditating even after being bitten by a snake,
• and has caused two mute people in proximity to him to begin to speak.

First off he can’t be the reincarnation of the Buddha because the Buddha attained Nirvana and once that happens you break away from the cycle of reincarnation. Second this is way old, he’s not 16 anymore he’s in his 20’s now and he most definitely didn’t stay under the same place for how many months. He moved several times to meditate before disappearing again.Third of all the guy himself never claimed to be the reincarnation of the Buddha its his followers and the media who don’t know anything about Buddhism to begin with, and he’s asked that people to not call him a Buddha and to leave him alone so he can actually meditate in peace. (Hence why he’s disappeared and changed locations several times to try and meditate because of people following him around).
