Nepal Buddha Boy Found (with a Sword!)

Ram Bahadur "Buddha Boy" Bomjan, who disappeared 10 months ago when fans distracted his meditations, was found by hunters in a jungle. This time, he's armed:

Apart from his customary long hair, Bomjan was also carrying a sword. Looking plumper than he was when he disappeared 10 months ago, the Buddha boy was meditating in the bushes. When asked why a person who believes in non-violence has ended up possessing a sword, he answered, "Gautam Buddha used to arrange for his security himself. I was forced to do so as well."
