Buddha boy documentary

Socumentary about Ram Bahadur Bamjan ("Buddha Boy") who has been meditating for 3 years without food or water.

[Professor Buzzkill]

Has anyone seen this on discovery?? The time lapse of the boy shows he is not eating or drinking for days.... any doctors with an explaination??

[Bill Hill]

sounds like a insult, doesn't it?

"Oh gawd...sigh... tut... what's 'Buddha boy' done now!"

[Dr. Peter Venkman]

He did eventually re-appear, althouh I don't follow the story. he should be reminded that Siddhartha Gautama tried this as well, and found nothing. Starvation isn't a part of the path. I think he learned that when he "disapeared".

[raoulduke666]

Something just doesn't sit right with me about him.  I just wish they would have put more thought into following the brother with the donations he was collecting.  For some reason I think it has do funding the rebels in their war.

[Lt_Ripley]

I think it's BS. Just like the claims of one guru who survived solely off sunlight .. for years . then was busted when his wife admitted she brought him fruit juices and soups. .

keep this boy in a closed room under lock and key with a video on him 24/7 in an objective study and lets see how fast he goes without water. I got money on crying by day 3 for water.

On 10 November 2008 Bomjon reappeared and spoke to a mass of devotees in the remote jungle of Ratanpuri, 150 km (95 miles) southeast of Kathmandu, Prakash Sen, near Nijgadh. With shoulder-length hair and his body wrapped in a white cloth, his devotees believe he attained enlightenment at Bodh Gaya in Bihar, which borders Nepal – the same place where Siddartha Gautama attained enlightenment.[19][20] Min Bahadur Shakya of the Nagarjuna Institute of Exact Methods in Katmandu stated that Buddhist priests have yet to investigate the boy, who in 2005 lived in a forest for 10 months.

All sentient beings are impermanent

         Transitory intellectual form are rich only for appearance.From the creation of human to all sentient beings all are policy of birth, old age, death of the cycle of impermanent existence.
Nobody can stop this. The world knows the present form, past form, Arhat soul form, supreme being form, non being form.  These three forms has already made the world unsteady. The true knowledge Maitriya knowledge has not been recognized by anybody. The soul Maitreya knowledge has its own guidance. But the policy of the world is not Supreme Being. It does not change it's philosophy in its essence. But all philosophy, the philosophy of religion is talking about the same thing. All human beings are unable regarding the religion and Bedha philosophy. Some kept doing some doing following the religion Beda and the whole life was repent.All religious text will find a different one while the same form philosophy. Those who get guidance will be submerged in practical selfish attitude but the glory between soul and super soul will never end. If the maitreya knowledge between the soul and super soul is recognized the wrong karma element of the world can be destroyed.But the world is submerged in its own selfish aim and nobody could keep the search of soul and the super soul in their heart. Today the world is in search of non violence and guidance in the form of kindness and maitreya.
       That could not be found from anywhere but today the world is frightened, terrorized and restless by the name of materialism. If this war generation is changed again the world will if that is obtained by the same form philosophy dhyanmarga I have been following. I will bring to light thousands of Buddhist texts, Buddhist guidance through meditation. In today's world there is the maitreya idea between soul and the super soul that is going thin and slow. The weakness between human beings is getting respect less and devotion less because of kali yuga.Because of momentary happiness the maitri feeling between soul and the super soul has already been forgotten. All momentary addiction form philosophy and material form philosophy will leave religion philosophy one day. But the repentance of whole life will become blue sky form that comes after death.
       If we have the knowledge of maitri between the soul and super soul because of one's spiritual power the subtle knowledge can be seen after death. I have gained the guidance of the whole life through hard meditation philosophy. The knowledge that is gained through dedication will be improved in practical knowledge.To liberate all sentient beings as well as to show the world the way to peace, all human beings monk knowledge kem kempo dharma followers I will speak about maitreya knowledge form philosophy. Unless there is enlightened wisdom between all sentient beings, I have already dedicated my life for the helpless sentient beings.

      This mahayan or maha Ampa dharma is not only for myself but it is for the liberation of all helpless beings. I have been meditating with lot of difficulty and I have become the Guru of all dharma or the first dharma of all which is srawan dharma. Second from among the dedication dharma Bodhisattwa which means I have become the Guru to liberate all helples beings. Hundreds of Jimphen Buddha means the Maitry Buddha.Hundred Jimphen Semkoi means all the sentient beings who have the feeling of Maitry. The second form philosophy Maha Ampa dharma or mahayan yanik.

      While looking at the form philosophy of the whole world from meditation philosophy point of view the instance form will be improved and changed. While changing the whole sentient beings don't be unsatisfied evil. This is the form philosophy of the whole world which keeps changing. If properly guided, if helpless sentient beings are liberated, if proper guidance for liberation and siddhi is provided for the worldly knowledge the helpless sentient beings the worldly knowledge that liberates the helpless sentient beings this is the non soul maitry knowledge which liberates and gives miraculous power.

Riddi Siddhi May all beings be happy.

This guy's got alot of eating to do if he's claiming to be the Maitreya lol. On a serious note, he speaks of soul and super soul. it may just be an improper translation But we don't believe in the existance of a soul. Secondly, as I'd mentioned earlier, Siddhartha had tried prolonged meditaion without eating. He nearly starved himself to death. This was not the path to enlightenment. Now, obviously he did pick up and leave and quite possibly obtained enlightenment, however I don't feel that he did through this means. Finally, the fact that he even merely suggests that he is the Maitreya is arrogant and puts up a red flag for myself. He need not say such things. All he needs to do is teach. Share his knowledge. If he is the Future Buddha then it will be obvious. I personally do not have any belief in that notion. Furthermore, Buddhism is thriving now more than ever. The time that the supposed Maitreya will arrive doesn't seem to fit.

Then again, I could be wrong. We'll see.

I also hear he disappears for extended periods of time. Unusual for sure.

Well those are very good points. I just found the story fascinating. I like to hear about people trying to do something for good. Don't hear much about it.

Socumentary about Ram Bahadur Bamjan ("Buddha Boy") who has been meditating for 3 years without food or water.</div>

I am from Nepal and have been following Ram Bahadur Bamjan since 2006. I was given many video footage and talked with many of his followers. I also went in the internet to see what the buzz was about this boy.

First mis-conception I noticed was that the Western media called him "the Buddha Boy" and attached the information/mis-information that he was and claimed to be reincarnation of the BUDDHA Sidhartha Gautam.

Ram Bahadur Bamjan as he was known in his village by the forest of Nepal clearly spoke then that HE was not the BUDDHA but he was practicing and studying to excel in the practice of DHARMA.

To do that he had to go through many difficult practices on his own in the confines of the jungle. It would be a step by  step test and learning going from one level to another. ( maybe just like some of the computer games that kids/ adults play in the west)

In these kind of practice, the first thing is called "Cleansing". So people who want to go on this path first go through a complete fasting program.
Fasting is essential not only to get rid of body toxins but the essential goal is to get rid of mind, emotion etc toxins.

In this regard I suspect that even the BUDDHA must have know this and "may" have fasted until almost death to reach the highest of pure mind.

As Ram Bahadur Bamjan had clearly said when the topic about not eating or drinking became an issue, he explained that that should not be considered an amazing feat as he still had other test he had to conquer. But he did say clearly that it was necessary to "go through the Cleansing by fasting" and once he can overcome this phase then he could move over to the next level

May you all be happy and curious and questioning.  Blind faith is never a good way to learn

[miphtan]

Ram Bahadur Bomjan is an extraordinary highly developed man and achieved a tremendous, extremely difficult and highly dangerous task.

He is NOT the Buddha and he is also NOT the Maitreya. Maitreya can however incorporate into someone and this is the case with the young man we are dealing with here. Buddha Gautama and any other spiritual being can also incorporate into someone and this is also the case here. Yet, it is not the name but the mission and the message that is important. Claiming a name is easy and does not need exercise. Ram Bahadur Bomjan would never claim a famous name and if you listen carefully you will not hear him saying this.

He is a highly sensitive, inspired and blessing personality, who tries to tell a crowd what in his opinion should be done and what should be avoided to bring a sentient world to its real freedom and spiritual destiny. That he takes his insight from Buddha Gautama and Maitreya is obvious. He mentions their names. He also mentions the existence of numerous sentient beings between the realms of Earth and Heaven that also need salvation. Stressing the fact that - since it is hard to incarnate (searching the physical germ) - we, physical human beings, have a enhanced responsibility to get insight into this current situation and to act accordingly.

I do not see why such a personality should be dragged down in the mud by remarks of disrespect.

But there is one point I am bit bothering about:

After the life of Gautama Buddha, mankind went on developing itself. It has now developed a state of abstract thinking to a degree that is amazing. Is this development without purpose/intention or is there an inner sense that justifies it? And if it seems justified, does mankind not come to an even higher state of development if it overcomes this hindrance of the self for spiritual perceiving? Is it perhaps not this state and its spiritual mastering Maitreya is waiting for? Since even Maitreya in his destiny to become a Buddha should fit in mankinds development and thus make sense - while teaching a new form of the Dharma. Obviously, he is not a copy of Buddha Gautama.

I am just trying to express a concern in a somewhat stumbling way since I would like to make space for Christianity - not in the form it is known by the practice of churches, but as a pivotal point in development, which is: not avoidance of sickness, aging, and death but mastering it through the spiritualisation of the blood.
