		<description>Dear Dalai Lama,

Since you started the cruel ban against the 350 year Dorje Shugden practice, how has it benefit your Tibetan society and Buddhism in the world? &lt;font color=#cc4125 class=&quot;bbcode-color&quot;&gt;Things have become worse and most educated Tibetans can see this.&lt;/font&gt; They don&#039;t speak out not because they don&#039;t see your ban as wrong, but you instill fear in them and not respect. It is like fear of a dictator. I am sorry to say so. Everyone is divided. &lt;font color=#cc4125 class=&quot;bbcode-color&quot;&gt;There is no harmony.&lt;/font&gt; Before your ban there was more harmony and unity.

By enacting the ban, you split the monasteries, split so many families, split regions in Tibet apart, split your disciples from you, split your own gurus from you, split Tibetan Buddhism apart. You have created so much disharmony.

It is not democratic what you have done to ban a religion within your community. You always talk of tolerance and acceptance and democracy and yet you do not accept and tolerate something different from your beliefs. When people practice Dorje Shugden you ostracize them, ban them from seeing you, ban them from using Tibetan facilities. You know you have done that. &lt;font color=#cc4125 class=&quot;bbcode-color&quot;&gt;There are videos that capture your speech and prove this point.&lt;/font&gt; You even had people expelled from monasteries just because they practice Dorje Shugden. Some of the monks you expelled have been in the monastery for over 40 years. Many older monks shed tears because of this.

Many young educated Tibetans lost confidence in you as they saw the damage the Dorje Shugden ban created and they lose hope. Many have become free thinkers. They reject what you have done. &lt;font color=#cc4125 class=&quot;bbcode-color&quot;&gt;So many people in the west left Buddhism because of the confusion you created with this ban against Dorje Shugden which is immoral.&lt;/font&gt;

You could of had millions of people who practice Dorje Shugden to support, love and follow you, but you scared them away. They are hurt and very disappointed. They loved you and respected you deeply before the ban. It has been 60 years and you have failed to get Tibet back. &lt;font color=#cc4125 class=&quot;bbcode-color&quot;&gt;Your biggest failure is not getting Tibet back after 57 years in exile.&lt;/font&gt; Now you are begging China to allow you to return to Tibet to the disappointment of thousands of people who fought for a free Tibet believing in you. &lt;font color=#cc4125 class=&quot;bbcode-color&quot;&gt;So many self-immolated for a free Tibet and now you want Tibet to be a part of China with no referendum from Tibetans.&lt;/font&gt; Just like a dictator, you decide on your own.  It was your government and you that lost Tibet in the first place. Your policies and style of doing things do not benefit Tibet and Buddhism. You have been the sole ruler of Tibet your whole life and you still have not gotten our country of Tibet back for us. Our families and us are separated. Yet you create more pain by creating a ban to further divide people. Please have compassion.

No other Buddhist leader has banned or condemned any religion except for you. It looks very bad. You are a Nobel laureate and this is not fitting of a laureate. You should unite people and not separate them by religious differences.

&lt;font color=#cc4125 class=&quot;bbcode-color&quot;&gt;You said Ms. Aung San Suu Kyi did not do right to the Rohingya people in Myanmar due to religious differences, but you are doing the same thing to the Shugden Buddhists within your own society.&lt;/font&gt; There is a parallel in this. You separate the Shugden Buddhists from the others in Tibetan society.

You have lost so many people who would have loved and supported you. You have lost so much support around the world. The Shugden Buddhists who love you number in the millions. When you are fast losing support from governments and private people, it will not do you well to lose more.

After you are passed away in the future, the rift you created between the Dorje Shugden and non-Dorje Shugden people will remain for a while and that will be your legacy. Disharmony. You will be remembered for this. Not as a hero but a disharmony creator.

Dorje Shugden will spread and further grow, but you will be no more as you are a human. &lt;font color=#cc4125 class=&quot;bbcode-color&quot;&gt;No one wishes you bad and in fact we hope you have a long and healthy life, but we have lost so much hope and have so much despair because of you.&lt;/font&gt; All the hundreds of Dorje Shugden lamas, tulkus and geshes are maturing and there are hundreds of Dorje Shugden monasteries in Tibet who will not give up Dorje Shugden. You have made a mistake. These hundreds of teachers and teachers to be will spread Dorje Shugden further in the future.

The gurus that gave us Dorje Shugden as a spiritual practice and you have called these holy gurus wrong and they are mistaken in giving us Dorje Shugden. &lt;font color=#cc4125 class=&quot;bbcode-color&quot;&gt;How can you insult our gurus whom we respect so much? If they can be wrong, then you can be wrong.&lt;/font&gt; Then all gurus can be wrong. So no one needs to listen to any guru? You have created this trend. It is not healthy. Your own gurus practiced Dorje Shugden their whole lives. Your own gurus were exemplary and highly learned.

Dalai Lama you have created so much pain with this ban against so many people due to religion. You are ageing fast. Are you going to do anything about it or stay stubborn, hard and un-moving. You show a smile and preach peace and harmony wherever you go. But will you do the same to your own people? Please rectify the wrong you have done. Please before it is too late. You can create harmony again or you can pass away in the future with this legacy of peace. May you live long and think carefully and admit what was a mistake in having this unethical ban against Dorje Shugden religion.

		<description>&lt;b&gt;What will the all the people around the world and in Tibet do now? Dalai Lama says he is happy that Tibet is a part of China and should remain a part of China. So many Tibetans self-immolated for Tibet to be independent and now Dalai Lama did a 360 degree turn and says he wants to go back to Tibet and China and Tibet should be a part of China. So unbelievable. So many are angry and disappointed.
&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;q&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:1.4em;color:red&quot;&gt;Tibetans ready to be part of China: Dalai Lama&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;
Organised by the Central Tibetan Administration (CTA), the event was a part of &quot;Thank You India - 2018&quot; held by the Tibetan community across India to mark 60 years of its exile in the country.
Indo-Asian News Service
Bengaluru
Tibetans are ready to be a part of China if guaranteed full rights to preserve their culture, the Dalai Lama said on Friday.
&quot;Tibetans are not asking for independence. We are okay with remaining with the People&#039;s Republic of China, provided we have full rights to preserve our culture,&quot; the 83-year-old spiritual leader said at &quot;Thank You Karnataka&quot; event here in the city.
Organised by the Central Tibetan Administration (CTA), the event was a part of &quot;Thank You India - 2018&quot; held by the Tibetan community across India to mark 60 years of its exile in the country.
&quot;Several of Chinese citizens practicing Buddhism are keen on Tibetan Buddhism as it is considered scientific,&quot; the Nobel laureate said.
Born in Taktser hamlet in northeastern Tibet, the Dalai Lama was recognized at the age of two as the reincarnation of the 13th Dalai Lama, Thubten Gyatso. He fled to India from Tibet after a failed uprising against the Chinese rule in 1959.
China annexed Tibet in 1950, forcing thousands of Tibetans, including monks, to flee the mountain country and settle in India as refugees.
Since then, India has been home to over 100,000 Tibetans majorly settled in Karnataka, Himachal Pradesh among other states.

		<description>For many lamas to stand up and be counted, to stand out like a sore thumb to take on the scorn of the non-practitioners of Dorje Shugden take courage, devotion and commitment. Their only concern is for the dharmic path of their flock. 

Homage to lamas like Geshe Lobsang Phende.</description>

		<description>This is an incredibly inspirational read. First off, he stepped up to lead the monks during their most tumultuous time, when their future looked uncertain. He put himself as the head and face of a monastery that had the entire Tibetan Buddhist world&#039;s collective hatred directed upon them. He opened himself up to scorn, insults, violence and made himself a target for all of this.

And yet hes not flashy, not showy like some abbots of other monasteries. You dont see him running around the world taking pictures with this and that lama, trying to edge into the spotlight. Hes just a quiet practitioner holding his commitments to the monastery, doing his practice, serving the sangha and teaching. You dont see him trying to get recogniton for his service. And after his tenure, he goes back to what he was doing which like the article says is a total commitment to &quot;the untainted practice of Guru Yoga, Lamrim, Vedic philosophy, Moral Discipline, the Vinaya and the Pratimoksha&quot;

There is so much to admire him for, most of all the fact hes just a pure monk.</description>

		<description>The ban and discrimination has made Dorje Shudgen people and lamas that much tougher, and looking at multi racial countries, some races can have a difficult time and some have an easier time. Ultimately the ones that have to struggle more comes out on top all the time, and the ones who are constantly coddled and helped have a more difficult time to make it.</description>

		<description>I love the article. It was very touching. I have met Kensur Rinpoche once, and could feel his compassion and kindness even he did not talk much. 

Thank you to all great masters like Geshe Lobsang Phende who hold their promise so well, and pass the lineage down purely &amp; completely. Without all these masters, many practices including Dorje Shugden Protector practice would not be able to benefit so many people like me. 

May Khensur Rinpoche always healthy and lives long to continue turn the Dharma wheel.</description>

		<description>It is without doubt that Dorje Shugden practitioners of today have to bow down at the feet of devoted Lamas like  Kensur Rinpoche Lobsang Phende to thank him for all that he has done to keep the Dorje Shugden practice alive !!
It must have been extremely difficult to take the stand of being &quot;different&quot; or &quot;against&quot; the majority . It must be tough to be criticized ; to be poor as sponsors shy away due to the ban; must be tough to have poor reputation !
This reminds me of the teachings of the 8 wordly concerns !

As in the 7 Limb Prayers of the Guru Yoga by Lama Tsongkhapa 
&quot; In this degenerate age you strove for much learning and accomplishment.
Abandoning the eight worldly concerns, you made your leisure and endowment
meaningful&quot;
We rejoice in Lama Tsongkhapa&#039;s achievements when reciting this phrase from the prayer . Similarly, Khensur Rinpoche has successfully emulated the qualities of Lama Tsongkhapa ! How wonderful is that !
May Khensur Rinpoche continue to live long in great health to continue to turn the wheel of Dharma to benefit many beings !</description>

May Khensur Rinpoche continue to live long in great health to continue to turn the wheel of Dharma to benefit many beings !</p>

		<description>It is just great news that great monks like Khensur Lobsang Phende Rinpoche are recognised by Lord Dorje Shugden. 

It is true that Khensur Rinpoche is a great monk. Out of everything, He stood up from all the monks to lead them despite of all the danger that he may face from the decision. 

Khensur Rinpoche&#039;s spirit is very admirable. It shows that when we fully trust our Gurus and work our life just for Dharma, we will in turn get good results. Reason being that we are showing and helping more people to the Buddhadharma.</description>
