		<description>Dear Dalai Lama,

Since you started the cruel ban against the 350 year Dorje Shugden practice, how has it benefit your Tibetan society and Buddhism in the world? &lt;font color=#cc4125 class=&quot;bbcode-color&quot;&gt;Things have become worse and most educated Tibetans can see this.&lt;/font&gt; They don&#039;t speak out not because they don&#039;t see your ban as wrong, but you instill fear in them and not respect. It is like fear of a dictator. I am sorry to say so. Everyone is divided. &lt;font color=#cc4125 class=&quot;bbcode-color&quot;&gt;There is no harmony.&lt;/font&gt; Before your ban there was more harmony and unity.

By enacting the ban, you split the monasteries, split so many families, split regions in Tibet apart, split your disciples from you, split your own gurus from you, split Tibetan Buddhism apart. You have created so much disharmony.

It is not democratic what you have done to ban a religion within your community. You always talk of tolerance and acceptance and democracy and yet you do not accept and tolerate something different from your beliefs. When people practice Dorje Shugden you ostracize them, ban them from seeing you, ban them from using Tibetan facilities. You know you have done that. &lt;font color=#cc4125 class=&quot;bbcode-color&quot;&gt;There are videos that capture your speech and prove this point.&lt;/font&gt; You even had people expelled from monasteries just because they practice Dorje Shugden. Some of the monks you expelled have been in the monastery for over 40 years. Many older monks shed tears because of this.

Many young educated Tibetans lost confidence in you as they saw the damage the Dorje Shugden ban created and they lose hope. Many have become free thinkers. They reject what you have done. &lt;font color=#cc4125 class=&quot;bbcode-color&quot;&gt;So many people in the west left Buddhism because of the confusion you created with this ban against Dorje Shugden which is immoral.&lt;/font&gt;

You could of had millions of people who practice Dorje Shugden to support, love and follow you, but you scared them away. They are hurt and very disappointed. They loved you and respected you deeply before the ban. It has been 60 years and you have failed to get Tibet back. &lt;font color=#cc4125 class=&quot;bbcode-color&quot;&gt;Your biggest failure is not getting Tibet back after 57 years in exile.&lt;/font&gt; Now you are begging China to allow you to return to Tibet to the disappointment of thousands of people who fought for a free Tibet believing in you. &lt;font color=#cc4125 class=&quot;bbcode-color&quot;&gt;So many self-immolated for a free Tibet and now you want Tibet to be a part of China with no referendum from Tibetans.&lt;/font&gt; Just like a dictator, you decide on your own.  It was your government and you that lost Tibet in the first place. Your policies and style of doing things do not benefit Tibet and Buddhism. You have been the sole ruler of Tibet your whole life and you still have not gotten our country of Tibet back for us. Our families and us are separated. Yet you create more pain by creating a ban to further divide people. Please have compassion.

No other Buddhist leader has banned or condemned any religion except for you. It looks very bad. You are a Nobel laureate and this is not fitting of a laureate. You should unite people and not separate them by religious differences.

&lt;font color=#cc4125 class=&quot;bbcode-color&quot;&gt;You said Ms. Aung San Suu Kyi did not do right to the Rohingya people in Myanmar due to religious differences, but you are doing the same thing to the Shugden Buddhists within your own society.&lt;/font&gt; There is a parallel in this. You separate the Shugden Buddhists from the others in Tibetan society.

You have lost so many people who would have loved and supported you. You have lost so much support around the world. The Shugden Buddhists who love you number in the millions. When you are fast losing support from governments and private people, it will not do you well to lose more.

After you are passed away in the future, the rift you created between the Dorje Shugden and non-Dorje Shugden people will remain for a while and that will be your legacy. Disharmony. You will be remembered for this. Not as a hero but a disharmony creator.

Dorje Shugden will spread and further grow, but you will be no more as you are a human. &lt;font color=#cc4125 class=&quot;bbcode-color&quot;&gt;No one wishes you bad and in fact we hope you have a long and healthy life, but we have lost so much hope and have so much despair because of you.&lt;/font&gt; All the hundreds of Dorje Shugden lamas, tulkus and geshes are maturing and there are hundreds of Dorje Shugden monasteries in Tibet who will not give up Dorje Shugden. You have made a mistake. These hundreds of teachers and teachers to be will spread Dorje Shugden further in the future.

The gurus that gave us Dorje Shugden as a spiritual practice and you have called these holy gurus wrong and they are mistaken in giving us Dorje Shugden. &lt;font color=#cc4125 class=&quot;bbcode-color&quot;&gt;How can you insult our gurus whom we respect so much? If they can be wrong, then you can be wrong.&lt;/font&gt; Then all gurus can be wrong. So no one needs to listen to any guru? You have created this trend. It is not healthy. Your own gurus practiced Dorje Shugden their whole lives. Your own gurus were exemplary and highly learned.

Dalai Lama you have created so much pain with this ban against so many people due to religion. You are ageing fast. Are you going to do anything about it or stay stubborn, hard and un-moving. You show a smile and preach peace and harmony wherever you go. But will you do the same to your own people? Please rectify the wrong you have done. Please before it is too late. You can create harmony again or you can pass away in the future with this legacy of peace. May you live long and think carefully and admit what was a mistake in having this unethical ban against Dorje Shugden religion.

		<description>Oh dear, is the tail showing already? How could one &quot;preach&quot; about practicing compassion in daily activities, just forget what he preaches the moment the gentleman asked for clarification on the division caused by the ban on Dorje Shugden. I don&#039;t see the gentleman as any threat and he was standing at where the microphone had been placed. He played the rule and yet Tibetan elitist rules are different I guess. Only my way and no other way! Isn&#039;t that &quot;Totalitarian&quot;?

I wonder why Samdhong Rinpoche did not answer the man&#039;s question? After all if you imposed the ban, you should very well know and should have clear understanding behind the ban. Does it trouble him so much to give a satisfactory answer and solve the question once and for all. Noooo...I guess Samdhong Rinpoche does not have a logical or legal answer on the ban and therefore dare not touch on this subject. How sad that after 20 years of ban, they are not even sure what the reason for the ban was. 

Please may the CTA and all the elitist of the Dalai Lama stop kidding us with the &quot;there&#039;s no ban&quot; &quot;there&#039;s no segregation&quot; &quot;no discrimination&quot; etc. Too many evidential proofs had been recorded and published. Its time you change and realise the terrible deeds of your lies will come back to bite you.</description>

		<description>Hypocrisy is the most accurate adjective to describe the actions of Samdhong Rinpoche. He was there to give a talk about practicing compassion in daily activities. Yet, when an immediate opportunity arise to show the audience how to be compassionate when someone faces a dilemma and confusion about the Dorje Shugden ban, Samdhong Rinoche put him down with threats and force. Not only is this not compassionate, it is disrespectful of his host and breaches human rights to freedom of speech.

With leadership of such calibre, it is unlikely that the &quot;Tibet&quot; name will attract anymore support or interest in the long term. Perhaps, this is why even Tibetans who were supporters like Achok Rinpoche is seeking refuge with China as they become Chinese nationals 

This act also show the complete disregard CTA has for one of the guiding principals of USA: freedom of speech and religion. Just because they can behave like warlords and distators and threaten every Tibetan into compliance back in their territories that were granted by the kindness and generosity of the Indian government, the CTA thinks they can impose citizens of other countries. However, arrogant, ignorant and disrespectful. 

This ancient and obsolete attitude of authority the CTA practices stemming from its serfdom culture contradicts the Dharma which is timeless and &quot;alive&quot; to meet the various different requirements of practitioners and spiritual seekers. 

Too many evidence is available online to shame the CTA. It is too obvious and something must be done about it fast. Otherwise, Tibet as a society, culture and tradition which is a beautiful cultural heritage of our world will be lost forever. 

Ending the injustice of the CTA is protecting and preserving humanity and our global heritage.</description>

		<description>This is disturbing and alarming. The man wasn&#039;t even protesting but simply asking a question about the treatment of Dorje Shugden. It seems that the authorities involved knew that there might be trouble, due to the very vocal protests in the past by the ISC. It seems that they had clued their security in on the possibility of one of the audience asking such a question. It was incredible that this could happen in this day and age of free and democratic speech. This just goes to show how far the tentacles of the corrupt Tibetan Administration actually spreads.</description>

This is so call democracy n freedom of speech by Tibetan leadership who are not respect to the rules of the country they are guests of . I pity to Samdhong because he is now losing respect of all our Tibetan brothers n sisters . When you lose respect of your people , how are you going to lead them in right direction?</description>

		<description>Looking at this video again, one can&#039;t help but think that this American has gotten his rights denied and isn&#039;t that illegal to curtail or prevent freedom of speech being practiced in the US? 

If the CTA can have such policies to bar people from speaking in their events, can you imagine what happens in other countries where the freedom of speech is not policed or enforced strictly?</description>

		<description>It is just ridiculous for them to be doing this. The man has just asked a very innocent question. He may not even take any sides about this situation yet they are doing this to him. 

Samdhong Rinpoche should have asked the security of the event to release the man and let him speak. He has spoke politely and there was no stance of even wanting to protest against Samdhong Rinpoche yet they are doing this. It just shows how ugly the CTA ministers are. Not giving the chance for people to be speaking and voicing their concern. 

Yet, this event is held in America where people are given the Freedom of Speech. The irony..</description>

<p>Samdhong Rinpoche should have asked the security of the event to release the man and let him speak. He has spoke politely and there was no stance of even wanting to protest against Samdhong Rinpoche yet they are doing this. It just shows how ugly the CTA ministers are. Not giving the chance for people to be speaking and voicing their concern. </p>

		<description>The fact that the man who was asking the question about the ban and was dragged away shows that CTA does not have a basis to impose such ban. To answer or to drag the man away, both will make CTA look bad. To avoid such awkward situation, the best thing to do is to lift the ban. Many are now questioning the reasons for CTA to impose such ban, the focus of CTA should be how to create harmony among the Tibetans, create more understanding among Tibetans who are of different lineages, after all they are all Buddha Shakyamuni teachings, just the method is different.</description>
