Buddha is Here!!!


I saw this news about "Nepal Boy Called Reincarnation of Buddha" which goes something like this - A teenage boy has been meditating in a Nepalese jungle for six months, and thousands have flocked to see him, with some believing he is the reincarnation of Buddha...





I haven't seen this boy personally but i saw the video few days back on the TV. actually here the news about the boy has already spread like fire for quite a while, saying that he is the God, the Buddha himself..after seeing the video it was so weird. he wasn't the most charming boy that you see everyday but there was something quite intense the way he was sitting there with his eyes closed. after all you don't search for any logic behind a person being alive without food or drink for 6 straight months!



Anyway its a weird world out there!

Explore the Beautiful Country - Nepal.


nepal is a beautiful country. its sad that not many people around the world know that nepal is so beautiful. what's sadder is that not many people within the country know how beautiful the other parts of the country are. a new site has been recently set up by the tourism board of nepal's branch TRPAP (Tourism for Rural Poverty Alleviation Programme), which in their own word, aims at reaching out some of Nepal's poorest rural areas by promoting tourism. its a beautiful site with lots of gallery photos and information of various locations of Nepal, including the Dolpa, Langtang regions, Kanchanjunga, Solukhumbu, Chitwan and Lumbini (yes, the birth place of Buddha). a must visit site...
