SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT

 

Due to the distinctive lack of support and cooperation within the Dorje Shugden community to bring down the ban, promote Dorje Shugden and safeguard the Dorje Shugden monasteries, we at DorjeShugden.com have decided to terminate all our online activities effective November 8th 2014.

Since its conception, we have spent millions of dollars and countless hours creating awareness through our varied articles, artwork, videos, comics, pendants, statues and other merchandise. However the lack of cohesive support within the community speaks for itself. The consistent unfounded allegations and attacks from WITHIN the Dorje Shugden community have proved disheartening. Everyone has their limits and it appears we have been pushed to ours.

Due to recent events, the sponsors and committee have expressed their displeasure. They have decided that effective November 9th 2014, the following activities will terminate:

- hosting and updating DorjeShugden.com

- Reporting and investigations of the latest news throughout the Dorje Shugden world

- Managing and posting on Facebook and online social media

- Printing of all mail out articles, brochures and various literature. Thousands of mail-outs are printed each month to create awareness

- Costs incurred from postage on mailouts

- Costs incurred from transportation of mail-out items and staff

- Production of statues and images for sale to support the monasteries

- High resolution images for FREE download

- Sponsorship of various Shugden activities

- Sponsorship to individuals who have personally requested DS admin for sponsorship, e.g. plane tickets to teachings.

All funding and the hundreds of thousands of dollars of donations to the Shugden monasteries will also terminate. Anyone else who wishes to continue this work is welcome to do so, on their own and gather their own information and resources.

We wish everyone good luck in this. We will not be pursuing the ban anymore. If you have any concerns, or wish to give us your opinion, please let us know via our Facebook page or email us at [email protected]

From,
Admin

  1. Gyatso, you are obviously an intelligent person. First of all, what do you think of the 14th Dalai Lama’s “Melody of the Unceasing Vajra?”

    As for not reading Tibetan, therefore not reading Je Tsongkhapa’s original works in Tibetan and what not, what good is it to read Tibetan if at the root of it all, Je Tsongkhapa checked his work with Manjushri in visions and without any language spoken?

    Even if you Gyatso do read Tibetan and have read Je Tsongkhapa’s “complete” works, how do you know that they are the undisputable truth? Are they really complete? How would you rely on them when you can’t check with Manjushri?

    Je Tsongkhapa also taught the practice of Dorje Shugden in Tushita Pure Land – have you been there? I have not for sure.

    I think that although intelligent, you are really missing a very major part of what the Lamrim teaches – that you have to have a Guru and you have to check him out first. But most of all, you have to be open and objective and question, not follow blindly.

  2. Gyatso, thank you for your honesty.

  3. Ridgo star, yedi any other

    Dear, please stop reply to gyatso. Or any other pseudo could take. He is troublemaker agent. This technic are use by many intelligence agency to do exactly what he do. He have nothing to say except insults, let him talk alone.

    When someone have only insults to say it’s because no valuable argument then to any other pseudo where insults could come, let them talk alone.

    Best regard

  4. gyatso, i don’t want to waste my time debating with you but let me tell you this. Who ever is your spiritual Guru he has not done good job taking you on wholesome spiritual path. Intention of People like you is to create disharmony among other sects and sit back and watch them suffer. I have FIRST HAND experience with protector Dorje shugden’s kindness and compassion and I rather trust my common sense than any Dharnatictian or two cent worth people like you. Gandhi was once asked ” Are you a saint trying hard to become politictian? and His reply was ” no, I am politictian trying hard to become a saint” and if this is true of Gandhi what can one say about all these Mega Lama …. hahaha

  5. BTW, it is not dorje shugden people who said we don’t want independent Tibet but would be happy to live under Chinese flag. It is wish or policy of CTA and I as an individual is vehemently against it. It is almost like requesting to the very person who took your wife away to let you have your wife back once on every 29th February. lol TELL ME WHO IS SELLING MOTHER LAND? haha

  6. Gyatso, a number of rebuttals to your various statements:

    1. On your statement that the Dalai Lama was educated and trained by the most qualified people in the Tibetan Buddhist world, I fully agree and one of the Dalai Lama’s tutor was Kyabje Trijang Dorjechang who stated without doubt that Dorje Shugden is none other than the Wisdom Buddha Manjushri.

    Why do you tell us to only listen to the Dalai Lama who was educated by the very best tutors and then you ignore what the best lamas in the Buddhist world had to say about Dorje Shugden?

    2. On your inference that those who do not know Tibetan (including Geshe Kelsang Gyatso and Gangchen Lama) are illiterate about Dorje Shugden because they have not read the texts that are in Tibetan. Here you err very grossly because the source of the Shugden practice is not Geshe Kelsang alone or Gancgen Lama but three centuries of the highest Gelugpa lamas including Kyabje Pabongkha Rinpoche.

    Are you also saying therefore that Pabongkha Rinpoche had no idea what he was talking about and neither did Trijang Rinpoche, who taught the Dalai Lama?

    You by your own admission said you only spent a few years in the monastery and yet you regard those who have committed their entire lives to the study and practice of Buddhism, to be illiterate?

    You twist and turn in each of your individual post but put together you are in fact incoherent.

    Ringo Star, personally I fail to see how “Gyatso” is “honest”.

  7. Gyatso, do you agree that your Guru is the root of all attainments?

  8. Gyatso, you cannot even answer a simple question without going into a rant about not understanding Tibetan etc. I told you I don’t understand Tibetan and you agreed that even so I may get enlightened.

    So I repeat, is your Guru the source of all attainments?

  9. when I said that Kelsang Gyatso and Ganchen are illiterate folk teachers, it is difficult some of you to understand because you guys were feed by this self-perpetuating the Guru-student relationship. I am no meaning of scholar or Geshe but i did spend sometimes in monasteries and love to read books. from my closing observations, I can tell that kelsang gyatso and ganchen don’t understand the basic tenant of Buddhism.
    It is like someone is teaching bible without understanding it, of course, the person might tell some stories about the Jesus and ten commandments, but this person don’t understand Bibil.

  10. @lobsang chökyi

    you’re right. i read now the comments of gyatso again and can’t find any serious intellectual process behind the discussion. It’s like debating with a fundamentalist Christian if Buddha leads to hell or not. Whenever beaten by an argument he starts insulting others with the same cant after a few lines again. Boring.

    @gyatso
    uhm yes, absolutely agree. i think indeed that many – but not all – Tibetans are robotic following their leader’s order. Also your arguments are just stereotyp propaganda arguments without own experience (“i knew one man who said to practice DS and became afterwards a drinker and now i know everything about DS and all his followers” – how cheap is this?). Everybody can watch in youtube screaming, badmouthing and stone throwing Tibetan mobs organized by the Tibetan exile government. If Tibetans behave like hooligans and tribals they will be treated in Western society like hooligans and tribals. Nothing wrong with it. It’s up to them to arrive in civilisation.

  11. Ringo Starr,
    Buddhism does not work that way. It is one of these interpretations, it not necessarily applies to all cases, for example, Buddha enlightened but who was the Buddha’s root guru? similarly, who was tsongkhapa’s root guru? ,

    this suggests that your understand of Dharma is so limited, as long as your understand four noble truth, practice it, you are the Buddhist.

    If teachers is not qualified like Kelsang Gyatso and ganchen, they can manipulate the students’ mind, this is worst sin of all other sins, abusing students.

  12. Gyatso, thank you again for being honest. I wish you well in your dharmic pursuits.

  13. I recall that the biography of Je Tsongkhapa clearly illustrates how important a Guru is. In this case wasn’t it Je Tsongkhapa himself who had to rely on Lama Umapa’s confirmations about Je Tsongkhapa’s visions and communications with Manjushri?

    “more importantly,
    let’s study where their money came from and these people think that they are safer at the hand of chinese intelligent, but we also have our own sources in china and tibet, we know what they are doing and how the money was channelled.”

    OK, now all the psychotic stuff comes out. Since you wrote that you live in a free Western country i would advise you to contact a good psychotherapist. Many Tibetans are traumatised by their own or their familie’s history. A good trauma therapy could help you to overcome your mental crisis. Wish you all the best for your health.

  15. yes,
    look at these protestor faces and their angers, if they have a government, i am sure they are going to burn the Dalai Lama alive and the rest of us putting concentration camps.
    they are actively helping the China’s government that killed a million tibetan, 1/6 of population, destroyed 6 thousand tibetan monasteries and forced 200 thousands tibetans into exiles.

  16. Wise up Gyatso!! The Chinese Government do not need the Shugdenpas’ support. The ban has divided the Tibetans basically. How to unite the nation when you are already divided among yourselves?

  17. Rachel,
    who banned what?, don’t make stories, there are shugden monasteries in India, if it is banned, what are they doing?
    I wish it is totally banned ,under the name of threatening national security and cult.
    but sadly, we can not because we have no government and no legal authority to do so,
    if you not blind, you can see this. we are political refuge and we live under laws of these host countries. so, all talking about bans is simply disgusting and dishonest.,just simply want to discredit our political movements, and our leaders.

    as I said, we have been tolerant to your shudgen people , now it is time to demonstrate in front of NKT and shugden organisations . it is time now. what goes around , it will come and it is simply the rule of kharma.

    .

  18. let’s Kelsang Gyatso’s public teachings , put sights to say “false Geshes, stop cult” “stop supporting murders”,
    i think it will be fun , of course, sometime let’s shout out in his teachings, and he should test of democracy, right?

    let’s buy some plane tickets to these NKTsurvivor groups. I think this will be interesting experiment. Hahaha

    “If this trend goes unchecked, and innocent people become seduced by cult-like practices of this kind, the danger is that the rich tradition of Tibetan Buddhism may degenerate into the mere propitiation of spirits.”

    As long as his HH Dalai Lama himself relies on spirits like Nechung and his entourage all this finger pointing doesn’t make sense. Just remember when Nechung prophesied in the beginning of the 90s that Tibet would be free very soon. I still remember the day when it was brought in the top German news that HH Dalai Lama proclaimed Tibet to be free very soon. Immediately afterwards a new wave of repressions went through China and many Tibetans had to suffer. Afterwards Nechung had to find a scapegoat for his wrong prediction. So he accused quickly Dorje Shugden as an obstacle since he was a competition for him. This was the beginning of the witch hunt.
    So the cause of all schism: An oracle and its wrong prediction. If HH Dalai Lama doesn’t want to have spirit worship then he should first dismiss Nechung and his team.

  20. Dear Administration, please, please don’t let people write all these negative and malevolent comments on your wonderful website! … it should be a space to give strength and encouragement to our Protector pratictioners, maybe the only one!!! but it’s being filled and used by these people to spread their poison..
    if you control these posts one day they will get tired to send them…I guess it’s too heavy for you, and for everybody, to read this kind of things every day!!
    we already have so many occasions to be cruely attacked out of here..
    AND PLEASE , PLEASE GO ON WITH YOUR GREAT JOB
    THANK YOU FROM HEART

  21. thank you to the moderator for keeping up your good work. i take it as a good sign that ds.com will go on in future … :-)
    no problem for me to cancel those of my comments which doesn’t make sense anymore since friend gyatso disappeared.

  22. Please don’t shut down? We need this sooooooooo badly. It has been indispensable in learning the truth. It’s would be a destructive and damaging loss for us all. Please don’t shut down?

  23. I am a regular reader of this web site. This is a very informative web site as I come across to know a lot of Tibetan Buddhism and most important about the Shugden update. I humbly request the admin to continue with this web site as for the benefit of many instead of certain internal issue. Hope to hear good news from you soon.

  24. Don’t mislead people by using issues like right, freedom and democracy. If it is an issue of right H. H. The Dalai Lama should also have right to teach what is harmful and what is helpful based on his wise and indepth knowledge and realisations in Dharma. So he is doing right thing and we should welcome him to be courageous enough to speak on the issue of DS. We should be thinking big and wide. Thus we should learn to give up personal agendas for the good of nation and our race. It is not uncommon to sacrifice one own benefits in order to protect the greater benefit of nation and community. Therefore, a true Tibetan should give up DS for the sake of harmony and peace within Tibetans and various sects of Tibetan Buddhism. I don’t care about what a handful western are doing by protesting against Dalai Lama. Some of them I believe are secret agents of some faiths, which are worried about speedy spread of Buddhism in world in general and particularly Tibetan Buddhism. Thus they are like tiger hiding in the skin of sheep. Working tirelessly to defame Buddhism and Tibetan Buddhism.
    Just look at the purposely created false and harmful reports of Buddhst terrorism in Mynmar few years ago. Which actually was an issue between Burmese and Rohingias two rival races in Mynmar, not a religious issue at all. So controller of big media houses purposely twist stories to make it more sellable and earn money. Most of the western protesters are Neo Buddhist, thus not even proper Buddhist thus they don’t know what is the DS issue at all. They just jump in to harm Buddhism. I feel pity to them on thier biased and racial approach towards Buddhism and Tibetans. They should live by good values and respect affairs of other religion as they respect theirs. The protest of DS followers against H.H.D.L is like pedophile practicing priests getting together to protest against the decree of Pope on that issue. May people be wise enough to choose right path.

  25. Don’t give up. I use this website daily for news and views from the Dorje Shugden community and its lamas.
    Please continue the great work.

  26. I think this is a right decision, we could have used all these resource to spread the teaching of Lama Tsongkapa, translating his teaching, uploading lamrim teaching, publishing books. This could have been a great use of the resource. But Shugden is not in the teaching of Lama Tsongkapa. They are 18 volumes of Lama Tsongkapa work and none of them talks about Shugden and worshiping worldy spirit in placement of your guru.

    I am not against Shugden but I am for the teaching of Lama Tsongkapa.

  27. I think this is the best news I have heard in many years! Perhaps the DS worshipers may now focus on Dharma and peace and compassion. Not hatred and anger!

  28. I am very happy to hear this website is closing. That will mean more money for me. I need to buy more and more real estate before I die. Just last year i bought a building in Sachs Harbor in the Hamptons for $3 million. Our lawyer said it was going to be a bookstore, not a dharma centre to get zoning approval. Funny bookstore that only sells books by one author–me, hahahaha! We also bought a place in Hollywood for $1.5 million, hahahaha! I am so great i can’t handle it.

  29. ..please go on with your great job! Please protect our pure Protector practice with your precious website. thank you

  30. This announcement is truly extremely sad. The Shugden movement is losing one of its important limb to fight the ban as well as spreading and preserving the lineage of Dorje Shugden. Please do reconsider not to stop your beneficial works but continue to benefit the world at large.

  31. DorjeShugden.com have been the light in the darkest moment. Please continue to be our light and shine brightly.

  32. Please continue to help others and do not be disheartened by their evilness and ignorance which are their greatest obstacle. Please carry on your good work, DorjeShugden.com.

  33. DS.COM you have received so many support and appreciation letters from many eminent high lamas, sanghas and institutions – this means…. you aren’t going to close your website, surely??

  34. Please continue this website, I have found it a source of great inspiration and benefit as I know many other people have.

  35. This is NOT the truth!! Have the DS cult given you some kool-aide? This is a cult! His Holiness has clearly said that if you want to worship DS, then do it….but don’t take vows or refuge or teachings from him. So what is your problem and why do DS worshippers say they have no religious freedom? If His Holiness is SOOOO evil, then leave him alone and get on with your life and DS worshiping! Grow up and get a life!

  36. Dorjeshugden.com – all hardworking people behind it, I just want to let you know, even I or other cannot see you all, or never meet you; but we have one thing in common — we all fight for the same goal — to practice Dorje Shugden passed down by our Gurus openly, legally and without fear of being killed or hurt.

    If there’s any difference then it will be most of us publicly practicing and people of this website support us from behind with knowledge, latest development, analysis, and platform to voice up. In battle like this and many battles in history, there all take on different role, working hand in hand, moving towards our GOAL.

    I humbly pledge you please do not leave the battlefield before we triumph.

    Thank you.

    Choying

  37. I do not understand why Dorjeshugden.com is so upset. From what i’ve read there was a false accusation, and the apparent belief that some Shugden organisations do not work for lifting the ban. So what ??? What others do is their business, if you have the wish to help protect Je Tsongkhapa’s lineage and the practise of Dorje Shugden , why does it depend on the support of others.

    Anyway, even if I personally really do not buy the whole big picture scenario, and that the FDL is banning the practise to promote it (how absurd !!), I do APPRECIATE all the hard work and efforts made by the people at Dorjeshugden.com in providing information on the Dorje Shugden issue.

    It would be a shame if this valuable source of information would disappear.
    So I would request you to please keep this site up for others to enjoy and learn about the real nature of Gyalchen Dorje Shugden.

    Oh and btw in case someone asks “what have you done ” ?? 1996/7 demos in London, Germany, on nationalTV on DS issue, on national radio debate with Tibet Support group representative of my country on DS isue, 2008 Demo Nantes, this year demos in Washington, Oslo, Rotterdam, Frankfurt, Livorno, Hamburg, Birmingham -Alabama, Princeton, Boston and New York.

  38. You can deceive the world by calling dorje shugden practice cult, spirit worship , but the truth will will be understood by all one day for sure. People with faith in D.S no longer attend any teachings by dalai lama, so why does he constantly have to speal ill of D.S & all its followere. Religious freedom means not having to hide your faith in fear of being seggregated, abused ,separated from friends n family,not being allowed inside non shugden monasteries ,shops etc. Let Dalai lama &CTA tell all tibetans n their supporters to stop calling us devil worshippers, stop calling us chinese agents . This entire saga that has unfolded reminds me of apartheid movement in s.africa.nelson mandela was truly great. Dalai lama started this seggregation n division & he is singly responsible for the present situation.all the more because he can end it anytime he wishes to.it seems the all knowing compassionate one has not been able to fathom our hearts n suffering.
    P.S please dont close this all important website that binds the shugden community together .

  39. Spent millions of dollars? You would have been far better off donating it to the families of poor Shugden Buddhists in India.

  40. Rust in peace ds.com

    Shugden followers have so far made many mistakes in the past. All these problem facing shugden followers are self inflected.

    Defaming the Dalai Lama and CTA will cause more self harm then help the shugden cause in the long run.

    So i think closure of DS.com is one less of a problem to this controversy.

  41. The testimony that this website is the unwavering voice for truth and nothing but the truth can be seen in the many letters of support and appreciation that have been pouring in and are pouring in from so many great Shugden masters, their ladrangs and groups. It is truly wonderful that more and more great beings , leaders and distinguished individuals, ladrangs and groups have come out in full support and appreciation of DS.Com for their unwavering report and presentation of the truth in the long drawn out Shugden controversy.

    Many, including Gangchen Ladrang, Kundeling Rinpoche and Panglung Kuten, have urged DS.Com to continue serving the millions who are suffering from the atrocites caused by the ban on Shugden practice, by keeping the website open. Panglung Kuten gently reminds DS.Com team to “never forget their initial motivation”. The letter of appreciation from HE Gangchen Rinpoche’s Ladrang states that “DS.Com is instrumental in preserving and spreading our Lineage(of Je Tsongkhapa) to many. DS.Com represents the voices and hopes of our people. DS.Com has brought tremendous benefit to our cause in bringing the ban down through facts and knowledge”.

    In a stirring letter of appreciation, Kundeling Rinpoche, exhorts DS.Com to continue and not to abandon what they have begun so that the “pure Dharma may prevail and that all sentient beings may benefit and practice fearlessly”.

    The latest appreciation letter to come in , has come from none other than VENERABLE KELSANG GYATSO, Spiritual Guide of NKT, He writes “in deep appreciation for DS.com”. “This website” he writes, “is a great resource through which everyone can receive clear and correct information”. Venerable Kelsang Gyatso has appealed to DS.Com to “maintain this website continuously”.

    Thus I urge and fully support DS.COM to continue being the beacon of truth in this ocean of confusion and deceit and lies. I urge this website to prevail in these times, as the ban’s lifting depends on you, the continuity of the pure lineage of Je Tsongkhapa’s teachings -so necessary for these degenerate times, the alleviation of suffering of the millions of Shugden practitioners ALL depend on you.

  42. Hello, regardless of any mistakes made by anyone, and in samsara mistakes are guaranteed to happen, ds.com must not shut down. It’s really simple … Any one who made mistakes just learn from them, don’t make such mistakes again, and carry on. To lose the results of all the hard work would be tragic. The task is too important to give up.

    We are talking about allowing a small bunch of deluded dictators to destroy dharma and erase it from this world. Some DL people want to do nasty things to me, but I’m not giving up. Please don’t let ds.com give up. I will never give up, whatever.

    Regarding ” … consistent unfounded attacks and allegations … ” it would be better to refute any such allegations; public allegations should be refuted publicly, private ones refuted privately.

    What is important is to maintain Bodhichitta motivation, continually use truth to refute all the lies being generated and spread world wide by the Dalai Lama, the Central Tibetan Administration, Robert Thurman and the newer Western anti Dorje Shugden groups.

    Truth will always eventually defeat lies regardless of how much money, resources and propaganda skills are poured in to maintain lies: because lies do not in any way relate to the truth, are vaccuous, too complex to be remembered, they can not be maintained. So, any group or organisation that uses lies to promote and maintain itself will eventually become unstable and untenable. It will be unable to keep track of its lies, it will increasingly contradict itself. It will become paranoid and lose control. We can see this begining to happen within the CTA and some other groups. So please do not give up, even though the propaganda armaments of psychological and e-warfare proponents can be difficult to defend.

  43. I’ve just read the appreciation letters on ds.com. They are just such a wonderful collection of support from the very highest beings on this planet. Surely it is impossible to shut down considering these requests?

  44. Your website really tell the truth. It is shameful for Tibetans like us. You shouldn’t tell the truth. We lose support.
    Shut yourself down by tonight. If done by tonite, will be great with my appreciation.
    If not, you are showing the true color of your organization because you air dirty laundry of our people and government. So shameful. Our government is corrupt and eat alot of money and use Shugden to hide their fault. You should not expose this.

    So think carefully. Better shut down completely this website, and stop embarrasing against His Holiness the great 14th Dalai Lama and CTA. It is better for you, really.

  45. My parents were Dorje Shugden worshipper. My dad was ex- Sera monk and used to do Lama Choepa Puja and Neljorma puja every month. we also use to have monthly Dorje shugden Kangso done by monks from Gyume monastery. when my father after a long illness was in his bed my mother requested Kuten Lama la come to our home . Kuten Lama la graciously came to our home. Near by my father bed they made small elevated seat on which Kuten Lama la went to trance and thorugh him Protector Dorje shugden gave many Advice ( mostly Lamrim ) to my dying Father. After few days my father passed away peacefully without pain and anguish with his PECHA on his chest. My parents never introduce me to our protector. It is from this website I learned much about Gadhen oral lineage and Protector Dorje shugden. It is from this web site I learned how to do Dorje shugden puja and offer Serkyem. Today I try to study Lamrim by reading ” Liberation in palm of your hand” – Pabongka Rinpoche and edited by Trijang Rinpoche. Therefore, I earnestly thank Dorjeshugden.com from my heart. Thank you.

  46. And also notice this “Our visitors” on the right side. The count is growing. Fantastic! Numbers are incredible, so many support this website and appreciative like me.

  47. Shugden is real devil ! Nechung is a devil. Tibetan religion is troublesome. People who worship to devil is just fucking-stupid !

  48. I may be two years late in my comment but I am certainly glad that dorjeshugden.com had compassionately continued to promote enlightened Protector Dorje Shugden and to create awareness towards lifting the illogical ban on his practises. The many articles and updates of the situation had helped many who had been confused as who to believe, the Dalai Lama (the compassionate Teacher but who’s actions contradict his teachings) or their Gurus who are Shugden practitioners. Your site had helped many to keep their samaya with their Gurus and many to clear their doubts in Tibetan Buddhism or even Buddhism in general to start their Dharmic path. The merits generated through this blog site is more than enough to overcome some hiccups that will always appear when good is being done. Thank you to the Admin., sponsors and supporters who kept this site going and may the ban on Dorje Shugden’s practise be lifted swiftly or for the Shugden practitioners to grow strong that those opposing becomes an obscuration.

  49. 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? Things have become worse and most educated Tibetans can see this. They don’t speak out not because they don’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. There is no harmony. 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. There are videos that capture your speech and prove this point. 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. So many people in the west left Buddhism because of the confusion you created with this ban against Dorje Shugden which is immoral.

    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. Your biggest failure is not getting Tibet back after 57 years in exile. 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. So many self-immolated for a free Tibet and now you want Tibet to be a part of China with no referendum from Tibetans. 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.

    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. 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. 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. 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. How can you insult our gurus whom we respect so much? If they can be wrong, then you can be wrong. 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.

Contemplate This

.…Instead of turning away people who practise Dorje Shugden, we should be kind to them. Give them logic and wisdom without fear, then in time they give up the ‘wrong’ practice. Actually Shugden practitioners are not doing anything wrong. But hypothetically, if they are, wouldn’t it be more Buddhistic to be accepting? So those who have views against Dorje Shugden should contemplate this. Those practicing Dorje Shugden should forbear with extreme patience, fortitude and keep your commitments. The time will come as predicted that Dorje Shugden’s practice and it’s terrific quick benefits will be embraced by the world and it will be a practice of many beings.
