I always love reading or hearing experiences whereby people go to all these holy places. I would love to go to the monasteries if I have the chance. It is also great to see that in times like this where the ban is going on and such, new monasteries that worship Dorje Shugden are having new temples. It is just great news showing the world that it is because of Dorje Shugden that the monks are able to find funds for their new monastery. This article is really exciting.

I went to India last year but did not visit many of the places mentioned above. I would really love to go again and visit all of the places mentioned. I visited Shar Gaden also. The monastery is very simple but when you step in, you will be greeted with big wide smiles. That makes everything worth it. All the sangha members are lovely. Even though they don't speak English, it did not really matter because I could still feel their love and warmth. The monks had struggled and suffered so much yet they are still able to live so joyfully. This shows how much they value the three jewels.

People say that had the Chinese not invade Tibet, Buddhism wouldve never gone to the West. In a strange way, if this ban hadnt happened, no one wouldve known about the greatness that is Dorje Shugden...certainly I wouldnt have, since Im not in or from India. I mean, what other reason would there have been for people to protest in front of the Dalai Lamas teachings in the UK, because actually that was what piqued my interest and led me to go online. Thank f*** for Google! Nice to see our lineage thriving, despite the difficulties our monks face.

The view of the Ajanta Caves from a distance was breathtaking! A row of neatly carved out caves in a semi-circle... I vaguely remember the statues and paintings on the walls. I was particularly attracted to the niches carved into the stone walls, rectangular with a low ceiling. I wondered whether they were sleeping places for the monks. Ellora has more Hindu statues but I like Ajanta better. This article reminds me of my own trip to the Ajanta and Ellora Caves in 1976. The view of the Ajanta Caves from a distance was breathtaking!

Although I was not there with this group of people but I could visualize the beauty of each place they visited. The Buddhism not only giving us a lot of teachings and prayers but also beautiful arts.
