In Nepal a young man, Ram Bahadur Bomjam, is believed to be a reincarnation of Buddha. He became famous in 2005 afters supporter said he could meditate motionless for months without food or water. Although he has many followers some still argue he is not Buddha. Mahiswor Raj Bajracharya, president of the Nepal Buddhist Council, a centre for Buddhist study and research in Kathmandu, said "We do not beleive he is Buddha. He does not have Buddha's qualities." and, "He may have achieved great heights in meditation, but that alone does not make him a Buddha. A Buddha needs life experience, a young man who has not seen the world at all cannot be a Buddha,"
