If this is true then how does it collect merits? Or are these statues blessed before so that it is infused with energy and not some empty metal image? Perhaps I did not understand this article correctly... perhaps someone can assist me. I have also noticed that many people also exploit this merit collection thing and make commercial gains from selling all these holy items? How does merit collection apply to this people who sell holy items and make commercial gains?

We must have enough merits to be able to practice Dorje Shugden who is from the pure lineage of the Gelupa tradition.

He is Manjushri, Buddha of Wisdom and Dharma Protector. When we do His practice well, we will be protected by Him and eventually we will gain wisdom. I love the above 39'' inches of Dorje Shugden statue, and I wish to invite Him to my home one day! May I have the merit to receive Him! OM BENZA WIKI BITANA SOHA.

Surely one cannot refute its excellent quality of craftsmanship and the superb accuracy of its iconography. All the details of the statue have been supervised by a highly qualified lama of high standing and knowledge. Every detail of the statue has not escaped the utmost experienced and trained eye of this expert Lama. It is incredibly meritorious to be able to invite this magnificent and rare statue.
