New Buddha is 15 year old boy. Buddha tells me to go in Peace. I tell him to go clean his room!

Of all of the potential religious beliefs out there I have always had a soft spot for Buddhism. But my spot is not this soft.

Thousands of pilgrims are pouring into the dense jungle of southern Nepal to worship a 15-year-old boy who has been hailed as a new Buddha.

Devotees claim that Ram Bomjon, who is silently meditating beneath a tree, has not eaten or drunk anything since he sat down at his chosen spot six months ago.
