Ram
Bahadur Bomjon (Sanskrit: Ram Bahadur bamajana) (born c. 9 April 1990,
sometimes spelled Bomjan, Banjan, or Bamjan), also known as Palden Dorje
(his monastic name) and now Dharma Sangha, is from Ratanapuri, Bara
district, Nepal.He drew thousands of visitors and media attention by spending months in meditation. Nicknamed
the Buddha Boy, he began his meditation on May 16, 2005. He reportedly
disappeared from the hollow tree where he had been meditating for months
on March 16, 2006, but was found by some followers a week later. He told them he had left his meditation place, where large crowds had been watching him, "because there is no peace". He
then went his own way and reappeared elsewhere in Nepal on December 26,
2006, but left again on March 8, 2007. On March 26, 2007, inspectors
from the Area Police Post Nijgadh in Ratanapuri found Bomjon meditating
inside an underground chamber of about seven square feet.On 10 November 2008, Bomjon reappeared in Ratanapuri and spoke to a group of devotees in the remote jungle.
