Free religious ‘choice’?

To the Central Tibetan Administration and related members, Whenever people raise questions about the ban on Dorje Shugden, the Dalai Lama and CTA deny that there is a ban.

Creating Arguments from Inside Out

To the respected members of the Tibetan government-in-exile, I must say that I have always admired the way the Tibetans have found balance between religion and politics. Over the centuries, no wars have been carried out in the name of Buddhism. To me, this is proof that Buddhism is a good religion. Buddhism is good…

Why does a Grand Buddhist Master have a Page of Hatred?

Dear CTA Over the last 50 years, His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama has almost singlehandedly made Buddhism grow throughout the world.

Doesn’t it Sound like a Contradiction?

Write a Letter – Make a Difference

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.
