Nepalese Buddhist monks (L) present khat

Nepalese Buddhist monks (L) present khatas (ceremonial scarves) to devotee Ram Bahadur Bomjam at Ratanpuri village in Bara district, 100 kms (62 miles) south of Kathmandu, on November 10, 2008. A young Nepalese boy reputed to have Buddha-like powers has reappeared in the south of the country to preach to thousands of supporters, witnesses said. Eighteen-year-old Ram Bahadur Bomjam -- dubbed the "Buddha Boy" -- rose to fame in 2005 after his family claimed he could sit for months on end without sleep, food or water.
