Ram Bahadur Bomjon (born April 9, 1990), also known as Palden Dorje, is a Nepalese man who gained international attention for his long periods of meditation. He is often referred to as the "Buddha Boy" by the media.
Early Life[edit | edit source]
Ram Bahadur Bomjon was born in Ratanpuri, a small village in the Bara District of Nepal. He is the third of five children in his family. From a young age, Bomjon showed a keen interest in spirituality and meditation.
Meditation[edit | edit source]
Bomjon first came to public attention in 2005 when he began a long period of meditation in the jungles of Nepal. He reportedly meditated for months without food or water, which attracted both local and international media coverage. His meditation site became a pilgrimage destination for many Buddhists and spiritual seekers.
Controversies[edit | edit source]
Despite his initial fame, Bomjon has been involved in several controversies. There have been allegations of violence and misconduct against him and his followers. These controversies have led to investigations by local authorities and have somewhat tarnished his image as a spiritual figure.
