A teenage boy has been meditating in a Nepalese jungle for six months, and thousands have flocked to see him, with some believing he is the reincarnation of Buddha, police and media said Wednesday. A teenage boy has been meditating in a Nepalese jungle for six months, and thousands have flocked to see him, with some believing he is the reincarnation of Buddha, police and media said Wednesday.

Ram Bahadur Banjan, 15, sits cross-legged and motionless with eyes closed among the roots of a tree in the jungle of Bara, about 100 miles south of the capital, Katmandu.

He's supposedly been that way since May 17 — but his followers have been keeping him from public view at night.

Well, it's about time he was reincarnated, I say! Sounds like the claims here have been exaggerated by the boy's followers, though.

Buddha is back? Quick! Get the car and run him down!

Actually, I'm a little miffed. I was planning on doing that very thing starting in January, and the kid has stolen my thunder.

Oh well. Maybe I'll go channel Napoleon.

If you meet Buddha on the street then kill, for he is not your buddha
