Buddha Boy Is Back?!?
from BBC News

Ram Bomjon apparently met with some of his followers near his home village in Nepal. He was no longer able to continue his meditations in peace, so he decided to get out. Ram, dubbed "Buddha Boy" by the media, told his followers to keep on praying at the site where he meditated for 10 months without supposedly taking food or water and that he would reappear in six years. The BBC story has video footage of the 16 year-old taken by his followers at the meeting, but government authorities are still officially searching for him.
