what do you think of Buddha boy?

This 15yr old has been living without water or food for three months supposedly nurished by the divine and is said to be the reincarnation of buddha. His face up close does look like the buddha doesnt have the same look as his siblings, whether he is real or not he is still sitting in a forest with no sustainance for three months ,i cant wait to see what he has to say to the world when he emerges from his meditation.

Please research this yourself i havent got all the details what i know is limited ive just found out about him.
I hope the child is eating or drinking that doesnt matter to me only that his level of concentration is extra ordinary in someone so young good luck to him and i cant wait until hes finished his meditation so we can ask him questions on his experience

Is there only one way to believe in God?

Christians believe in Scripture and the Tritinity. Jews believe in God but don’t believe Jesus was the son of God. Mormons believe Jospeh Smith was a prophet sent from God and added to the new testament. Buddhist beilive in Buddha and reaching an enlightened state through meditation. Religous Scientists believe in a Higher Power… THE LIST IS ENDLESS!! Do you believe that there is any one way to be close to God. Is there a place such as hell to where I’d go if I don’t believe in your God?

Home schooling lesson plan ideas for a 7 yr old?

He is doing fractions for math, reading and book reports, spelling, and learning about American History. We also have him learning about Buddha this year, meditation, and tai chi. He has piano once a week.

But still it seems like he is doing a lot of worksheets and listening to “lectures”.

So does anyone have any lesson plan ideas, movies, games or activity ideas?

Thanks :)
Nope it’s the second year…. just don’t seem to be inspired for any projects. Like I am lacking some ideas. You know?
Ya that’s just it – I wanted some more hands on stuff. We have field trips and such – like our homeschooling group is doing one about animal care at Petco tomorrow.

Just wanted some ideas to switch things up.

Why do people think Buddha is a god?

I get a lot of people telling me I’m going to hell because I worship Buddha. If your gonna bible thump me, make sure you know what your talking about. Buddhism isn’t an actual religion. It’s a way of life. A way to feel like a piece of heaven here on earth. You meditate, do yoga, eat right. Find happiness here on earth. My point being, don’t put me down if you don’t know what you are talking about. People also say I worship Buddha. I do not worship buddha. Buddha actually means enlightened one. I am trying to become a Buddha, one with the earth, and the people on it.

Why not live to the enjoyment of human potentiality and fufillment and excercise our beliefs through the ways?

of various. Why could we not take the wise words of Muhammed, and live by and for the earth like Buddha, or be self-conciously aware and try to lead a descent life, loving all like Jesus, or practice the meditation of Hinduism, and the afterscents of their various cultures? For isn’t it true, that all prophets speak of peace and tranquility-based on monotheism, justce and respect for human dignity? In the words of Iran’s Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. Why not talk? Is there a need for destruction of human life in one singular entity; to entirely dispose of a human race. We are all valued? As much as some American’s may dislike, or even loathe, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was he not once a child, a rare and innocent child born to a human mother. In so being he is of equal right and value as every other one of the 6.5 billion people on the planet! So say what you wish, but he is human, he deserves credit for that. There are no perfect souls. To exterminate anentire race Ihave only but one word.. Holocaust
