Hence, the ban promotes Tibetan Buddhism as a whole. After some time, information are being placed on the interenet, hence making every one to know who is Dorje Shugden and do research on him. It is true that alothough some Shugden practitioners are just blindly following and practicing, but after a while, they do start to relize who Dorje Shugden in through the text that would be read. To me, this ban has created much harm and trouble to the Shugden practitioners, at the same time, it has brought Dorje Shugden and Tibetan Buddhism to much higher levels.

So much so the world is talking about it and keeping track on each and every step of the anti-Shugden's movement and the pro-Shuden's. Many by practicing blind faith, not knowingly go against the very fundamentals of their own practice which is Guru Devotion and loving compassion for all beings. This may be a time where everyone's faith is being put to test, whether to please one side or to tread carefully between both, knowing both HHDL and Dorje Shugden are in fact Buddha. One should think deeper the many reasons why HHDL banned Dorje Shugden's practice even by putting the whole of Gelug Lineage at risk. Not only the practice of Dorje Shugden did not stop, it increased and spread far and wide, especially into China. The Buddha's and Boddhisattvas with their skillful means, for the sake of Dharma will choose to manifest in many ways and different forms to guide and to lead us.
