Gibbons Tue, 28 Aug 2012 14:24:54 +0000 http://dorjeshugden.com/wp/?p=266#comment-28495 I'm pretty much ignoring all the stuff about HHDL seeking meaningful dialogue because clearly after 50 years and like hundreds of self-immolations, that isn't happening any time soon. Sooooo...he can't tell the Tibetans to shut up about Tibetan independence but he can tell them to persecute others for Dorje Shugden practice? Makes sense to me...not! So why the obvious double standards? HHDL is a smart man, he would've known that by now someone would've sniffed out his double standards. So why is he continuing to be so blatant about them? 1.. Is it about power? But it can't be, he stepped down from power. 2.. Is it about money? But it can't be, because he never has a moment to enjoy it anyway (have you seen his insaaaane schedule?!). And besides, look at his lodgings and what he lives in. The only things that are beautiful around him are his altars, which for all Buddhists should be beautiful anyway. 3.. Is it about fame? But it can't be, because he was famous long before he banned Dorje Shugden. I don't geddit!
