Dalai Lama’s Ban on Dorje Shugden Affecting Gaden Shartse Monks

Watch this video of monks in Gaden Shartse Monastery, engaged in their daily practice of rituals, prayers, studying, debates at the courtyard… Dorje Shugden has been practiced for 350 years as the principal protector of Lama Tsongkhapa’s lineage. These monks are devastated due to the ban imposed by the Dalai Lama.

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.
