Post by: Mana on January 28, 2012, 01:00:40 PM

Our team has worked very hard to have this ready for weeks now. Of course we ask for everyone's patience as there might be some tweeking and bugs along the way that needs to be still ironed out for the next few months. So we request you for your understanding.

Basically it is fine and ready to go. If you have any questions, then just email into:

[email protected]

We hope these precious items will be of benefit to many. It is our sincere wish to bring Dorje Shugden to many.

Thank you for such great News!

I will definitely be shopping online  so great to engage all DS practitioners around the world... Iv'e been thinking that it would be nice to place a tsatsa in a very public place to bless many people(and now I can) very nice!

Hey just a side question will their be a brochure we can pass out with our current DS brochures? or will the current brochures be amended to advertise the DS online shop?

Thanks again Admin! May more and more DS works to end the ban manifest quickly!

Dear friend, You may download the brochures we have on the homepage and amend in any fashion you think suitable. You may show your printer ppl or friend the file we have and amend as you like. The important thing is to distribute.

It would be very good to distribute in your home countries. People will  find a brochure then go on the website and learn more on Shugden. That is the purpose of these brochures.  :)

This is awesome! Finally a Ds eshop!!! Thank you admin for all your hard work in bringing Ds one step to closer to everyone around the world.

Definitely will be shopping from here. I love the pendants, the statues and the tsa tsas, they look so well made and very high quality and reasonably priced too.

Thank you so much for this, it has been very difficult to obtain good quality Dorje Shugden items. dorjeshugden.com You guys are a super!

The brochures points back to this site and from this site you can click on to the eshop :)

Just checked out the DS Online Shop. 
 
It is absolutely awesome!  Dorjeshugden.com - you have done it again!  It is yet another significant milestone in your quest to bring DS far and wide and closer to sincere practitioners worldwide.  Many practitioners and newcomers to DS practice will appreciate your effort in making this possible.  Many more will surely benefit from this Online Shop.
 
I find it is so convenient and accessible now to get the DS merchandise which is not easily obtained from many parts of the World due to the ban on DS.  What a beautiful range of DS merchandise on sale in the shop!  Shopping for Dorje Shugden items has never been made easier.

Great work by the team to get the online shop up and working so quickly. Now more people would have the chance to own their very own Dorje Shugden products.

The items are very nice. I especially the silver pendants. So modern and contemporary. Now all the products are just a few clicks away! Thank you guys! A job well done!

I love what you guys are doing, the first e-shop solely on Dorjeshugden in the world. You make the lives of us, practitioners, so easy. I am very sure your items will grow, love to have bigger DS statues  :D

Your sincerity and consistent work in promoting Dorje Shugden has touched the lives of many, so many are blessed and their practice made easier becasue of your tireless and selfless work.

I rejoice and may the merits your team created bring much happiness to you and your loved ones and may those whose lives are touched find protection and a blessed spiritual journey with our King, Dorje Shugden.

Thank you so very much!!!

CTA eat your heart out! There is no way CTA with its backward and archaic policies to have come up with anything close to the DS Eshop. Many many more people in the world will now be blessed by Dorje Shugden imagery and experience the blessings of Manjushri.

This is yet another initiative by the DS website to create more causes to lift the ban, by doing the opposite of what CTA is doing. Whats opposite is that CTA is making it very difficult for DS practitioners to practise but the ds website through the eshop is making it much easier to engage in the DS practise hence it will create the causes to lift the ban.

Wow, when I log on  to the website just now, I saw a yellow highlighted on the right, immediately it attracts to click it, as this is something new I saw today, this is really cool.

I like especially the layout, the payment, it is simple, nice, neat and very well organized. You know what, I didn’t know buddha’s pendant can be so modern and beautiful, the statue (that give me a very close look on the statue), the prints, it is so beautiful, it is stunning, everything is simply just so amazing.

What should I say, Dorje Shugden is wonderful, but webmaster, your team is totally amazing, Thank you for providing such wonderful platform for us to continue our practice and sorry, I think I’m a little bit over joy, but at last, I can have some proper Dorje Shugden statue to make offering to.

Much appreciate to the team, you guys are great.

Good point you make there.

While the CTA are very busy trying to contain and suppress the practice of Dorje Shugden in India / Nepal or whatever small corner of the world they happen to reside in, they have clearly forgotten the power and reach of the internet... which is borderless and global! People EVERYWHERE will now have access to images and statues which no anti-shugdenpa can ever try to destroy or censor. Like Medusa's hair: for every one shugden practitioner they try to subdue, another few thousands spring up in places too far away for them to have any jurisdiction over. I rejoice in this aspect of the eshop more than anything!

I am very impressed with the e-shop. It is beautifully designed and the products are wonderful. I rejoice that it makes it possible for people everywhere to have their own objects of worship now - from something as small as a pendant to a full statue and thangka prints. Thank you to the people who have made this available.

Oh my god! This online store is very tempting. I gotta wait for my paycheck before I can make my purchase. Believe me, my purchase would not be my last. It would be good to stock up on the comics and pendants to give away to people as gifts. Nice. Very nice indeed. The world is indebted to this website for taking Dorje Shugden to the world.

I'm so glad to see this online shop. You all really make Lord Shugden widely and creatively spread in any way that is possible.

All material of Lord Shugden are made conveniently and available at our finger tips.
Not just the info that you provided here but great nice and valuable merchandize.
I personally love the Lineage Tee very much. It's a complete lineage that is good for my visualization.

I THANK YOU so much.

Thank you for all the effort in putting up online shopping of DS items. The statues, pendants and tsa tsas are all very nice and quite reasonably priced and the profits can go towards maintenance of the website and spreading DS. You guys are amazing! Through your effort more people will have an opportunity to get a DS item of their choice which is hard to come by due to the ban and also not many shops sell DS merchandise openly.

May the merits collected from your team’s effort be dedicated to the lifting of the ban!!!

This is really great news to have an eshop available to all.  Just one click away people can get Dorje Shugden's blessing and they can really own it!  I congratulate the team for working tirelessly to bring the most convenient way for the practitioners to get access to the protector whether is information or materials.  I must say you guys are true dharma practitioner.  Not only your website is educational, you constantly give us "free" materials to download so we can also do our part to bring dharma to others and gain merits.  Your generosity is greatly appreciated.  I am most happy to know now this e-shop can contribute some to the maintenance of your website.  Now we know how where to shop for a bigger reason :)

I really rejoice to the team of dorjeshugden.com as much efforts has been put into the site to grow Dorje Shugden's practice. This is also the reason why, dorjeshudgen.com has become my daily habits to visit and thanks for accepting my shallow words in the forum.

I am a simple Dorje Shugden practitioner who has very good merits to know more about my king of protector from this site. Now it's really rejoicing to see the launching of the e-shop!!!

My lord, you may manifest more because more people are inviting you home!! 8)

How wonderful that the team behind this website is tirelessly spreading Dorje Shugden in such incredibly meritorious and peaceful methods. The message is clear: Why is there the need to fight the issue head on... just spread goodness, wisdom and compassion aggressively as our protector does. We will persevere and get the ban lifted through examples of precisely these qualities.

I for one am so excited as it now gives me the opportunity to get a hold of the blessed items which some of us in some parts of the world have been privy to which I gathered from the many postings shared here.

Keep up the good work Team Dorjeshugden.com!

I rejoice in your merit.

I'm just curious - where will the shop profits go?

The 'profits' will go to several places:

1. Maintaining this website/staff/overhead/research/travels.
2. Shar Gaden Monastery are the recipients of our donations in general eg texts, food, robes, pujas.
3. Sponsoring of senior monks who have TB, diabetes and other medical needs who we have been supporting for over 5 years now. Their medication, medical costs and related we've had the honor to sponsor.
4. Over 50 sangha studying for their Geshe degree in various monasteries in Kham, Tibet.

These are the primary places we have been supporting and will continue. But their needs are increasing and we would like our donations to increase.

It is so convenient now to get a DS statue, thank you so much  :)

Few years back, I went through so much problems to get a statue for my protector practice because no shop kept stock of this 'banned demon'. Finally got mine at a small shop in Nepal which was after several visits and befriending the shop owner.

I must let more know about this Special E Shop !

Hooray! Thanks for the shopping space where we can indulge AND benefit others at the same time :)

As all start ups need support in the secular world to sustain itself, it should be no different in the spiritual world. Therefore, on top of rejoicing and personally supporting the e-shop, we need to really promote the link to as many potential customers as possible so that the new e-shop will generate the revenue needed to sustain itself AND contribute to future efforts to bring Dorje Shugden to more people.

Excellent news! I had a browse through the online shop, and it's looking fantastic and classy! Simple to navigate through, simple to make purchases, and beautiful products.. I've been waiting for this for a long time. Thank you for all your hard work, dorjeshugden.com! Your team gives nothing but the best, and takes alot of initiative to educate and benefit all your readers. Thank you!!

Just a quick thought by the way.. would the shop have any simple and short prayer books for people to buy in the near future? Say maybe like a short compilation of prayers for daily DS sadhana, so that people like myself who have very limited access to DS in my area, can purchase this book, and do a complete, simple and short DS practise/sadhana every night? I know the short sadhana of DS is up on the website here: http://dorjeshugden.com/wp/?page_id=57 (http://dorjeshugden.com/wp/?page_id=57) but just wondering if your team has any already printed out/in use or would put the prayers up on the eshop for sale, in a form of a small book? I think it would be quite popular, because then, people can buy the prayer book, and the statue from the Dorje Shugden Online Shop..it's like a starter kit right there! :) Anyways, who would like a DS prayer book to be sold on the shop?

I can imagine the e-shop having more and more items of Dorje Shugden in various creative products in the near future! And when the e-shop is well equipped with many blessed Dorje Shugden items, many people will buy and the e-shop expands to full fledged RETAIL OUTLETS all over the world!

A pretty wild dream but not impossible my dear friends! Lets all brainstorm together to see what other items we can include in the e-shop for now and in the future.

Perhaps...statues/paintings of Great High Lamas who practiced/practice Dorje Shugden? (Trijang Rinpoche, Domo Geshe Rinpoche, Pabongkha Rinpoche, Song Rinpoche, etc)

statues/paintings of Dorje Shugden's previous lives? (Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen, Panchen Sonam Drakpa, Dulzin Drakpa Gyeltsen, etc)

any other interesting ideas?

I do think prayers are great in books but personally I prefer to read mine on my android phone so my prayers are accessible at any time anywhere! As for HH Kyabje Trijang Rinpoche’s biography and Music Delighting an Ocean of Protectors, I would love to have those in hard copy but I can imagine that it would not be cheap for a production of those books!

Perhaps all of us who have benefited from this site can help by promoting the online shop to our friends on our various social media so that if there are enough orders, they could do a short run? Or people could donate to the production costs – after all, sponsorship of printing Dharma texts is incredibly meritorious. I’d be tremendously happy to contribute to this.

Lets all brainstorm together to see what other items we can include in the e-shop for now and in the future.

Can't think of items for sale at the moment but am wondering about an online comic strip, with DS as the main character of course... educating readers on the story of DS and Dharma in a humorous way which working class people could relate to and appreciate (like Dilbert!).  Then maybe from there, can sell DS merchandise in the form of t-shirts (with the comic strip of DS characters) or soft toys (imagine soft toy version of DS snow lion.. hehe cute), mugs with humorous DS quotes... provided that this is not being disrespectful to DS of course.

I went on the e-shop and the shopping experience is wonderful. It is easy to navigate and the products are exciting. I managed to buy one pendant and it arrived on time.

Has any one purchased anything yet? If not, I think we should support the good works of the people who started this online shop because we gave them feedback that it will be a good way to promote DS to the world. Furthermore, all the sales is for a good cause i.e. to spread the teachings and to support this website so that the ban would be lifted sooner.

We should all at least buy something to show our support! Don't you think so?

Many have ordered pendants. Pendants are very popular. Also the statues are favored by many. Small and not bulky.

Everything availabe is Dhogyal stuff. If you are a Buddhist site, how come you don't have any Shakyamuni items for sale? Or Guru Rinpoche?  This is what HHDL meant when dhogyal practitioner put Shugden above Shakyamuni. You guys don't worship the true Buddha which is Shakyamuni. It kinda seems degenerate to me. Something in this itself is wrong. Can you guys see deeper of what I am saying?

Why only Shugden stuff for sales?

No Shakyamunis this big. Why is your statue of dhogyal so big? Your main image should be Shakyamuni. Your worship of this spirit is taking centre stage and it's dangerous. That's what HHDL is warning us from the kindness and wisdom of his heart. He doesn't want to hurt anyone. Contemplate it. He is going all out to speak against Dhogyal. So what motive can he have?

Study Dzogchen and take refuge in Shakyamuni or do Vajrakilaya's practice or something we don't have a shadow of a doubt about. Namgyal Monastery has incredible Vajrakilaya ceremonies I always attend. And you guys should join in HHDL's talks and ceremonies. It's a huge blessing.

Hi TG

A: If you check the name of this site you can discover that this is a website dedicated to Dorje Shugden. Not a general buddhism website. (Therefore the selling of Dorje Shugden statues , pendants etc..)

B: Dorje Shugden practitioners are not allowed to attend the teachings of the DL.

@Tenzin Gyatso, as you should already notice, this web and forum is dedicated to Dorje Shugden and His practitioners. While HH Dalai Lama advised people not to practice Dorje Shugden, I also received Dorje Shugden teachings from our Guru. As such I will continue practicing Dorje Shugden.

As to why this website only sells Dorje Shugden related items such as statues, pendants, comic books, etc, I think the reason is also quite obvious: There are many websites selling Shakyamuni items, but there is no other websites selling Dorje Shugden items. I mean, you can find 1 or 2 items here and there, but this eshop has so many Dorje Shugden items for practitioners to invite so that they can continue their practice.

Another thing you said:

Quote
You guys don't worship the true Buddha which is Shakyamuni

So, if I do Tara practice, does it mean I am not worshipping the "true" Buddha?

Anyway, I am REALLY happy this eshop is live and now I can invite Dorje Shugden items home for my practice!

WOW! The items in online shop are SO beautiful! You people are really the best that I've come across. Besides this wonderful forum, you also have 1 forum dedicated to the Chinese speaking and now an online shop! May the merits we all collect bring more people into understanding the awesomeness of Lord Dorje Shugden!

I fully agreed with kris that there are many website and shops selling Buddha Shakyamuni. This is the only place where sells DS stuff! Frankly speaking, all these while I have only Buddha Shakyamuni on my altar and I am thankful now with eshop, I can add DS on my altar. I believe it must be I have been praying a lot to shakyamuni that he supports and blesses me to find the DS statues and items now in this eshop. 

@Tenzin Gyatso, regarding your point that “Dalai Lama is going all out to speak against Dhogyal. So what motive can he have? ” I believe he is for a bigger picture! I respect HH DL a lot. I have been following HH quotes and teachings regularly too. For example, one of his quotes “If we can manage to refrain from harming others in our everyday actions and words, we can start to give more serious attention to actively doing good, and this can be a source of great joy and inner confidence. We can benefit others through our actions by being warm and generous toward them, by being charitable, and by helping those in need.” If HH is not someone with great compassion, he would not have said something like the above.

However, this is contradicting to his ban to DS. Practitioners of DS are also severed from all voting rights, education, social welfare, medical aid or even social interaction with their fellow Tibetan citizens! At first, this causes a lot of confusion to me on why HH who is so compassionate would harm others. This is not logical at all! After reading the posts from here and other places, I started to believe what HH is doing is for a greater picture! As I can see, due to his ban on DS, more people get to know DS and practice Buddhism.  This is really a great example of skillful means! Don’t you think so too?

Congratulations to the ever hardworking team of Dorjeshugden.com for creating an online shop for everyone on Earth to browse and purchase. Whenever I want anything Dorje Shugden related, I will go to the online shop. It is really a good way to reach outwards to people. Communications and business through the internet is the 'in' thing nowadays. More and more people will be on their computers.
 
I hope that in the near future, tons of people will be on their computer inviting home lots of wonderful Dorje Shugden items.

 Keep up the good work. When I save up my money, I will buy a nice, big statue of Dorje Shugden through the online shop.

Congratulations on your online shop. It is now easier to purchase Dorje Shugden related items. Before this, I have been through many online stores and have not been able to purchase a Dorje Shugden pendant. Thank you for bringing us this convenience. I will definitely let my fellow practitioners know of your shop because I myself find it very unique. It is also very easy to navigate through the pages. And the best thing of all : My order will be delivered directly to my door steps.

WOW! A website dedicated to Dorje Shugden and now we have the Online Shop.  It is so easy for us to order and the items come personally delivered by the courier company. It is so convenient.  I'm starting to be greedy -- please put up more items for "sale"!!

You really have a wonderful team who can put up and maintain such a wonderful site and make it even more interesting with new ideas.  I don't have to look anywhere else for correct and up-to-date information.

Finally an online store with good DS products. First thought that came to my mind: now CTA members who are secretly doing the practice can have access to DS items without anyone knowing. I believe that many are still doing the practice but due to their official capacity, they ended being closet practitioners. I doubt the entire CTA can be that foolish to give up DS practice. Look what Samdhong Rinpoche declared after he retired???

Recently a friend of mine came back from a trip in Nepal with some Dorje Shugden Tsa tsa made from herbs/clay? It smelt medicinal. I've never seen anything like it before. The front was painted in gold and at the back is red. Does anyone know anything about this??? Where can I get them? Does the E-shop have them?

My friend told some of these Tsa Tsas are very special, some are made with relics from high lamas who has passed away. I've seen herb/clay tsa tsas of other deities like Tara, Tsongkhapa, Vajrayogini etc before but none so far for Dorje Shugden. Does anyone know what I'm referring to?

Here I've attached a picture of how a her tsa tsa looks like.... hope to Dorje Shugden ones online, would love to get one :)

I rejoice in your merit.

I'm just curious - where will the shop profits go?

This is what said on the website: All nett proceeds go towards maintaining this website, staff, overheads, research and travel expenses. Part of proceeds also go towards supporting various Dorje Shugden monasteries, namely sponsorship of Dharma texts, meals and robes for the Sangha and pujas. In addition, donations also go towards the sponsorship of medical expenses for senior monks who suffer from TB, diabetes and other medical needs. DorjeShugden.com has been sponsoring several of these senior monks for over five years now. Your contributions will also go towards monks who are studying for their Geshe degrees at Dorje Shugden monasteries in Kham, Tibet. The more support we receive, the more help we can provide the monks’ increasing needs.

It is good to know that the money spend not only benefit ourselves, but goes into supporting the growth in Dorje Shugden's practice which in turn are able to help many many more. To have more and more geshes/teachers arising from Dorje Shugden's monasteries means there's more and more qualified teachers to pass on DS practice ensuring an unbroken lineage and continuity of Tsongkhapa's teachings. There's no way to spend which can be greater than this.

Thank you Mana and team for such an amazing website, it's very touching to know that there are people who would put in their time and effort to spread Lord Dorje Shugden's sacred practise, what is most important is that  you all get nothing out of this ( as in personal benefits ). May this online shop benefit more people in the future.
