Boy With Mystery Condition Is Worshipped As A God

A SIX-YEAR-OLD Indian boy is worshiped by locals who believe he is the reincarnation of the Hindu god Ganesha. Pranshu, from Jalandhar in the Indian state of Punjab, was born with a mystery medical condition that has left him with a swollen forehead and deep set, narrow eyes. Although he is unable to walk, villagers believe Pranshu is a divine child and have nicknamed him 'Lord Ganesha’ - flocking to see him outside the nearby mosque.

being treated like a god when you're born different is way better than being bullied and osracized by the society. wish him a happy life

[iTibez]

At least he is treated with kindness and respect. Unfortunately, in many parts of the world disabled people are ridiculed and ostracised.

[wonhoscake]

For those of you that think he's spoiled, be happy for him. If he wasn't in India, people would threat him like trash. Be happy that there's people that accepts him

[alexie]

US: "Ugh....freak."

India: "One of the reincarnated deities!"

My Heart Exploded When He Said "No One Makes Fun Of Me"

[JeniKayla]

At least he's not being bullied for his deformity 😁

[IqraKhan-vclo]

I think its great that he's confident in his looks, but it kinda hurts to know that he's living as someone else

[the_th_night]

"I believe my son is a god." Talk about high expectations...

[websurfer]

Who would've thought that God has an angry birds backpack

[hhgreggfan]

i don't really understand it but it makes him and the people around him happy so i guess i'm happy for them.

[jess-opgi]

He puts on better eyeliner than i lol XD

[smilingbuddha]

Though that last words "I wish god always keep me happy" worth billion dollars

[daphne]

At least he's being treated well, in many cultures a deformity such as this would be seen as disgusting and the child would likely be put in an orphanage. As long as he is happy, that's all that matters.

[sasharoyal]

I'm happy he is happy and not being bullied ☺

[knowone]

Better to praise them as gods than throw them off as monsters

[hadrieneverard]

Welcome to India, where disabled people are considered as gods.

[francesca]

he has a better social life than me damn

[Lo-Fi-Go]

Atleast he's getting respect and not hurt as he would in our fucked up culture.

[martelwebber]

I like how he embraces the meme and calls himself god as well lul

[Undevided]

Don't be so negative people, he's a human being. Its good that he thinks himself the way he does rather than think himself deformed or less than. This is a feel good story.
