Just one thing - the Dalai Lama is not saying that Trijang Rinpoche supported the ban, as there was no ban when he was alive: I'm sure the ban began in 1996, well after Trijang Rinpoche's passing, unless you know for a fact that it started earlier. What the statement is saying is that Trijang Rinpoche supported the Dalai Lama's decision to stop doing Dorje Shugden practice. I don't think this is true either. Trijang Rinpoche would not have any option other that to accept what the Dalai Lama forcefully rejected -I doubt he was consulted, given how much the Dalai Lama has been seen to disrespect him subsequently. Also, as you know, Chenrezig is the Buddha of Compassion, not wisdom - just a slip of the keyboard, no doubt! ;-) It’s great that you are replying to the these statements on the Dalai Lama’s website and you’ve made some great points.
