Update Jan 30, 2006: Tens of thousands of people have visited the site, hoping to catch a glimpse of the Nepalese Buddha Boy - and a cottage industry selling pictures, CDs, etc. of Ram Bamjan has sprung up around this phenomenon (with proceeds going to rebel Maoist, said gov't officials). The screen that was erected to shield him from view has been taken down, but there is still no resolution to the claim that Ram has not eaten or drunk anything since he began his meditation 8 months ago. (Does this matter? The 16-year old has been meditating for 8 months! I couldn't sit still for 5 minutes when I was that age) Nepalese eKantipur website's got the latest news:

but man what a waste of six years is all i can say.
I plan to help my fellow humans and grow with expiriance for the next six years of my life, and not selfelishly sit still for six years

Then listen to what he has to say.
Apply it to your life.
And see where it takes you.
Thats what I will try to do.
