These are really cool dorje Shugden pendants promoted by the Thai Dorje Shugden group there. Someone worked really hard to make this accessible to the masses in Thailand. So kind to have provided this to people to be blessed by the new King. Thais are really remarkable people and they respect their monks and king a lot.
-
They look cool, very different from the traditional pendants of Buddhist deities.
I bet many young people will love to have one.
The Thais are so lucky, these pendants are available to anyone who wishes to be blessed !
-
Wow! The pendants are lovely and I wish I have one myself. It must be amazing to be spreading Dorje Shugden in Thailand so openly. I am sure the Thais are very accepting unlike many other places. I think it is the language and the fact that Tibetan politics have not infiltrated their society yet. On top of that, the Thais have a culture of Buddhism and respect for the Gods. Lovely.
-
What when did Thailand start practising Dorje Shugden?
That's truly a first.
Nice pendant too!
Talk about free from politics...
Truly Blessed,
Thailand is soo lucky:)
-
The Thai pendants look cool. I have been to Thailand quite a few times but never seen any Dorje Shugden images before. Understand that Thailand Buddhism is always follow Theravada tradition mixed with ancient Hindu believes, it's really a good news that Vajrayana especially Gelugpa is growing in Thailand.
I really hope Dorje Shugden practice will be widely spread in Thailand, because Thais are very kind in nature, and they respect all Buddha, they do not like politic in religion, which means they will not care about CTA's ban and just pray and get benefited, so simple and nice, this makes me really envy about them.
By the way anybody know where can i get this pendants ? Is it for free, or do we need to purchase it ? Is it in a temple or those pendants market ?
I will really wanna get one for myself on my next trip to Thailand, and this is another excuse for me to be there.
-
Yes, we now have Phra Dorje Shugden in Bangkok Thailand!!
The pendents are given out for free, and may whoever touch the pendents, the Manjushri's seeds are planted in to their mind stream. May they become Dharma teachers in this life or future lives, to spread the Dharma.
We request that Dorje Shugden show signs and compassion to the people of Thailand...
-
Just been checking out the Thai Dorje Shugden facebook it looks like the practise is unstoppable many more people are getting a taste of whats it like to rely on Manjushri.
https://www.facebook.com/phrashugden (https://www.facebook.com/phrashugden)
Looks like many chapels are sprouting like mushrooms after rain! May the thais be blessed by wrathful Manjushri.
-
It only indicates that while the Tibetans are having issues with the protector, another place is growing with the practice. How ironic! Needless to say, the trend is always like that. The more you want to stop something, the more it will happen. I guess it's karma I suppose. I mean how can you stop karma from ripening? We all clearly know that if it's good, it's unstoppable! Thailand is such beautiful country with very beautiful people, they deserve to have something good. In fact, most of them are very devoted Buddhist and respect of all things Buddhist. they will welcome Dorje Shugden with open arms. Sorry to be rude, while one can keep complaining and pulling Shugden's posters down, while 3 are putting posters up and praying else where. So keep talking.
-
The pendant looks nice. Upon checking the Thai Dorje Shugden facebook, the photos showed happy faces of the Thais with their pendants, photos and tsa tsa of Dorje Shugden. There's even an altar set up in the floating market for the public to pray to Dorje Shugden. The Thais are truly blessed!
-
Such beautiful pendants! I hope to have one of this pendants one day. Can Dorje Shugden spread globally already? It will be nice to see everyone wearing the pendants around.
It will be nice to see it as a trend! Those who are creative please create more pendants! I am so excited can I have one now?!
-
WOW! Brovo to the group who is spreading Dorje Shugden in Thailand. Your efforts will definitely benefit a lot of people. A dharma friend of mine just came back from Bangkok a few weeks ago and she told me that she saw Dorje Shudgen pendants and picture cards being displayed in shops in Jatujak Market!!! May DS spread further and wider.
-
Wow! Lord Shugden is in Thailand now!
Not to say that I'm surprise but this Buddhist country is very lucky and they deserve it. Thailand has a very strong Buddhist culture and for Lord Shugden practice to spread there is maverlous.
So happy to know this and seeing the picture of the big Lord Shugden statues at the floating market……really beautiful.
Every single person walk by will get the blessing and i can see that there are some pic display too.
Great work for the people spreading this great practice in Thailand.
Would really want to visit this place!
Rejoice!
-
Awesome, I am going there for my Christmas Holidays will definitely keep a look out for our King! The address on the facebook page is that where I would find him...?
-
Wow, I was just commenting on Mana's Thangka earlier and I saw this post. I love pendants and I always thought that it was cool to wear a Shugden pendant or any Buddha pendant. The only places which I know I can get these pendnats are from India & Nepal. The nicer ones there are very expensive.
Can anyone please let me know where else I can get the pendants?
-
Wow! I'm so happy to know that we have Thai friends spreading our protector's practice. I'm sure many people's lives will be touched by our protector especially during the recent floods. It'd be great if there are practitioners from different countries do similar projects in their own country. I guess it's important to go back to the grass roots.
-
May the communist domino theory for South East Asia be realized in the form of Dorje Shugden spreading all over the country. First is Thailand, then who knows maybe next to adopt Dorje Shugden will be Cambodia, Malaysia, Singapore, Vietnam, Laos, Myanmar, Indonesia the possibilities are just so enticing to just think of. Many centuries ago South East asia was a bastion of Shakyamuni's doctrine, may The Gelugpa trailblazers once again turn this area into a pure land of Manjushri's/Lama Tsongkhapa's teachings once more.
-
I just can't believe this! Earlier I read of 3' image in Thailand and now I am reading about Dorje Shugden pendants up for grab in Thailand! How fortunate the Thai people are.
-
Latest article on flooding in Bangkok, seems like the main Dorje Shugden chapel in Silom was unaffected by the floods. I do hope the people in Silom realise how much blessings Dorje Shugden bring to the area!

May wrathful Manjunatha bring seeds of enlightenment on the many thais and farangs that frequent the Silom area and all over thailand.

Guess what I saw/found while walking around shopping??? Look closely at what is around each panda's neck (picture attached). ;) I thought I saw this pendant somewhere before... I looked at it closely and when I flipped it over there was our King... I rejoice for the kid (or adult!!!) that buys this cuddly toy and get a special bonus! Cool huh!

Whoever put the DS pendant around these lovely cuddly pandas is brilliant! I am sure anyone who buy them would love the idea that they are blessed by buddha Dorje Shugden. What's more, these pandas look really cute in their Chinese outfit. A great gift for Chinese New year which is just around the corner!
Blessed Pandas, blessed pandas.........
-
I was in Sri Lanka recently. Guess what I found around the neck of a security guard at the famous Tooth Relic Temple in Kandy ? A DS pendant !!!
When the guard caught me staring at her pendant, she stuck it into her blouse shyly and whispered " it's for protection...."
Looks like the King is spreading very fast in these traditionally Theravaden countries. In these Theravaden strongholds , you'll be surprised how readily DS is being accepted as long as the people are being informed that DS is a buddha.
-
These pendants are beautiful masterpieces. I want to wear them loud and proud around my neck but I guess I can't yet. When the ban is lifted, these pendants will be swinging on my neck. I promise :)
I hope that the person who took such great effort to design and craft such a beautiful masterpiece will live long. May they accomplish whatever they want to be accomplished.
I wish for those who may wear, touch or even see this wonderful pendant to have long life and whatever enjoyments they so desire. I hope for the seeds within their mind streams to be opened.
-
Gorgeous! Look, lovely pendants they have! Thai are really fortunate..much appreciate those who spread DS to thailand and put in so much effort in making the pendants, let DS bless everyone in Thailand and plant the seeds in there. So beautiful, i rejoice in such virtuous action in spreading dharma.
-
I couldn't believe these pendants are given away free when I first found out. I have been following Phra Dorje Shugden on facebook and it appear that all sorts of merchandise were given away free on a daily basis.
Check out the dedication of these people who is responsible for bringing DS to Thailand. Whoever it is really wants to bring tremendous benefits to the Thais.
This Phra Chok Dee chapel has been built on the advice of our spiritual teacher. We would like to dedicate the merits from this chapel to:
? All the citizens of Thailand. We especially dedicate the merits to the King who governs the people, to the Chief Monk who guides the people’s religion, and to the government who develops the nation
? All the people we love, like our fathers and mothers, teachers, masters, friends and family
? All of the suffering animals, in all of the realms
? All practitioners in their journey towards spiritual attainments
May everyone have peace, health, long life and success in whatever they wish.
A group of Phra Chok Dee students
Buddhist countries like Thailand, Nepal, India are truly Heaven on earth.

I think that the Thai pendants are really beautiful because the art is amazing and it is very detailed. Dorje Shugden and the background is also very rich in color. The design is very nice that they frame it and having gold surrounding it , the inscription on the back is very beautiful too. The art shows how kind and at the same time fierce too. The string is plain and simple. The Thai pendant should be one of the most famous pendants ever!
-
You can get the pendants from shop.dorjeshugden.com. This is the exact link to the pendants that is given out freely in Thailand. ---> http://shop.dorjeshugden.com/pendants/dorje-shugden-classic-pendant.html (http://shop.dorjeshugden.com/pendants/dorje-shugden-classic-pendant.html)
I have been following Phra Dorje Shugden facebook quite closely and apparently the pendants are given out freely at Dorje Shugden chapels in Thailand. Thais loves amulets. They preferred if it was given by monks/temples rather than bought as it is believed to be a greater blessings. So the people behind DS in Thailand has hit the spot in getting the Thais to connect with DS by giving out DS pendants which appeals to them very much!
-
These are really beautiful pendants!
It is good to get beautiful pendants and wear them, as this can attract people and whoever that sees the pendant would get visual imprints. I also heard that when people say positive things about a Buddha pendant, like praise its beauty, it is like an offering of speech to the Buddhas. So wearing a beautiful pendant everywhere you go is giving people opportunity to plant imprints in people's minds and create a connection with Buddha (or DS in this case). If we have the motivation to benefit others and plant Buddha imprints in others when wearing a pendant, this translates to goodies for us too!
-
Those Thai pendants look amazingly captivating. Hopefully more and more people will be benefited by Dorje Shugden. It is said that by just looking at the imagery of the Buddha, one is being planted a seed for the person to able to practice Buddhism in this life or future life. It is also very fortunate to learn that there's an Dorje Shugden Altar been set up in one of the floating market, imagine how many thousand souls in blessed daily just by simply walking pass or making offerings to the DS.
Looks like the Practice of Dorje Shugden is spreading and there are some signs which suggesting the ban will be lifted very SOON!
-
Reading this makes me want to go to Thailand now! I rejoice for the dedicated people in bringing Dharma/Lama Tsongkhapa's teachings to the world and especially in Thailand. Never been to Thailand but people are nice there. Its the merits of the Thais to be able to meet the best protector of our time era. May all the people in Thailand will be benefitted in anyways by just seeing or praying to Lord DORJE SHUGDEN!
-
The Thais are very Buddhistic and for most of them it is part of their culture so it will easier for them to accept once they know that Dorje Shugden is a Buddha. As Thais love to wear amulets for protection, Dorje Shugden pendants will be very accepted by the Thais, especially this Thai DS pendants. It so nice :)
May Dorje Shugden blesses the Thais and spread to the neighbouring countries.
-
It is really great to learn that Dorje Shugden pendants are available in Thailand to bless the Thais. Thailand is one of the most religious country in the world. Temples and buddha statues are seen no matter which part of Thailand you are at.
There are lots of people offering dana on the streets to the monks every morning and that is such a wonderful sight and a great way for us lay people to collect merits.
The Thais really love any form of amulets or buddha pendants. With them wearing these wonderful Dorje Shugden pendants, they are being very blessed and protected.
May more of Dorje Shugden's presence and pendants sprout in this buddhism fertile land of Thailand and more people get blessed by this great Protector.
-
I have a feeling that such exotic pendants will spread further and further, everywhere and far away around the world as they are very popular and Dorje Shugden does have a very strong karmic connection with people of our times. Besides, they look like a very nice accessory that goes with any outfit and can be used alternatively as a trendy fashion statement especially for hipsters as nothing says cool than supporting a banned protector. haha.
Jokes aside, wearing the pendant is a very good way of promoting Dorje Shugden as people would be interested in knowing who this is and will basically reinforce the message that Dorje Shugden is good, else why would so many people wear him as a pendant? Another more important benefit of wearing the pendant would be that it does help make connections to all who see it, including animals and ghosts.
Perhaps this website should also provide instructions on how to create such pendants to people who might need it, or to provide inspiration for others who wish to create the pendant in their own country so that they can also generate merits from wearing this pendant alone.This also helps to spread Dorje Shugden there as well. I am sure we have a lot of friends who would want to do that.
Overall, doing this is a very good idea! And imagine selling this on taobao to zillions of Chinese who are just thirsting for spirituality and who love luck and auspiciousness as well!!! everyone would want one! It'll be a new fashion accessory there! When that happens, how can the wishes of teeny weeny CTA overcome the wishes of the worlds largest nation! How exciting, the potentials of these wonderful pendants!
-
Fantastic ,gorgeous,awesome,unbelievable!Ran out of adjective to describe these pendants.It is a work of love and artistry of amazingly talented and skilled jeweller who have toiled for days in creating these beautiful designs that are exceptional.You'll be the envy of everyone when you wear one.Besides promoting our Protector,you'll be the envy of everyone when you wear one.There are also other items such as tsa tsa given out for free.Anyone who sees will hve seeds planted in their mindstream and be blessed.
-
The pendants in Thailand are available in this website's eshop. Check it out at http://shop.dorjeshugden.com/dorje-shugden-classic-pendant.html (http://shop.dorjeshugden.com/dorje-shugden-classic-pendant.html).
If we have the financial means, it is meritorious to buy the pendants and give them away. It's a great way to connect people to Dorje Shugden and receive blessings when wearing the pendant. It is also a great way to protect the person from any harm.
When others see the image of Dorje Shugden on the pendant, seeds of Manjushri are implanted in their mind stream. So much merits are generated and so much benefits received from just giving away a pendant.
-
How wonderful it is to have the image of our King in any form especially when worn close to our bodies. For the wearer and for the people gazing upon the pendants. Imagine the benefits of a large scale statue seen from the horizon!!!
I have been to Thailand a couple of times and there are many such statues and temples which dominate the landscape. How beautiful and meritorious for the people living and visiting the area.
Imagine the day when there will be images of Dorje Shugden for all to see far and wide... How beneficial for our times... Lift the ban! Lift the ban!!!!
-
The pendants are just splendid. and beautiful. I like them.
Thai people are really spiritual and have so much affinity with Dorje Shugden. These pendants can be worn around the neck or they can be hung in a vehicle or office/house for blessing. We can also hang around our pets which is another powerful way to bless our pets and create good karmic connection with DS for them.
During my forthcoming vacation, I want to get some home from Thailand to give away as souvenirs to family and friends.
-
Cool pendant design. It is very modern and out going. Hopefully I’ll be able to get one and where it every where I go. Im sure once the ban is lifted more and more people are going to scream for one… hahaha…
-
I wear my Shugden pendant everyday especially when I travel. I trust Shugden without question.
He has been my friend, protector and help on so many occasions. Wearing his pendant makes me feel close to him always. I wish to sponsor the making of his pendant in the future.

-
The more they suppress Lord Dorje Shugden, the more He GROWS! WOW! Unbelievable! Even the Thais know the benefits that they can get from the King!
The times I visited Thailand, the people made me feel at home. They are devoted and kind people so it's no wonder they can accept our King easily! For He is a Buddha and He can help them in so may ways. The beings and animals that get to see His face, even for a few seconds are blessed!
People nowadays prefer modern looking things. The design of the pendant and statue is magnificent! Keep it up!

I love the pendants. I actually saw them in little Thai shrines dotted in the capital. What a wonderful way to bring blessings and plants seeds of Manjushri into the minds of people. The Thai people have a beautiful reverence for monks and things holy. On a trip a few years back, I saw first hand how the Thai people would queue up in the early hours of the morning to give "dana" to the monks. Dana is an offering in form of food and drinks usually.... at least from what i saw!
A few months later, this webmasters of this website launched the online shop and lo and behold I found the exact pendants for sale. Without hesitation I got myself and some loved ones the pendants. They can be found here:
http://shop.dorjeshugden.com/pendants.html (http://shop.dorjeshugden.com/pendants.html)
I even saw the cutest thing in the a mall... look closely at the picture and what is around the pandas:
-
Thank you Dharma Space for sharing! :) These unique pendants are definitely very modern and stylish! :)
-
The wearing of pendants is actually quite common amongst the Buddhists. Often the pendants are wore as a symbolic of beliefs and also as an accessory . Wow, so wonderful to learn that Dorje Shugden pendants were being made available and distributed free in Thailand. Thank you to all those kind sponsors and may those who wearing the DS pendants be blessed, remain strong and gain much faith in this powerful king dharma protector. 8)
-
That's interesting. The Thais are more open and receptive to the various form of the religion. Nice pendants and modern too. May the Thais be blessed. Nice to know that somewhere the practice is without controversy.
-
Thank you for the sharing. It’s wonderful to know that Dorje Shugden pendants are available for free or for invite. I bought 5 stainless steel pendants and 2 classic pendants for my family two months ago. Last month I bought 4 more classic pendants and today I just bought another 10 classic pendants. My friends and family love the pendants so much and wear it very often. I am so happy that they are with Dorje Shugden blessings and protection wherever they are.
Don’t you think they are so stylish and beautiful? 8) ;)

-
The stainless steel and classic pendants are nice and affordable. I bought a few from DS.Com eshop for myself and as gifts for family members and friends and all of them love it. I am glad that they now have blessings and protection from Dorje Shugden:)
-
Yes, these are very beautiful and holy pendants. Thank you for making them available on the dorjeshugden.com online shop. I have purchased some to be given to some love ones. It is a very simple ordering process and I received them in good condition. It does give me a peaceful mind to know that the pendants are reminders to my love ones that they are under the care and protection of the great King.
-
I have both the stainless steel round pendant and the classic DS pendant. I love my pendants. Is the best gift for family and friends and at affordable price.
-
Yes, the pendant is very fine gift for family and friends. I was given a pendant as well and being able to give it to someone close who can be blessed by wearing Dorje Shugden pendant. This makes me convince of the power and ability of wearing a Buddha pendant more so a protector pendant. :D
-
Awesome pendants to have. It is a very dharmic way of spreading the Dharma and in particularly the efficacy of the Protector's practice. Personally, how good a pendant look, how expensive or the material is an offering to the Protector because all these are representations of our offering up our attachments and miserliness. For the receiver, if there are newcomers and are non buddhist and does not understand the significance of the meanings of pendants, it is still benefit in that they will have the dharmic imprints of the protector imprinted on them.
For practitioners, we must understand the significance of pendants and the qualities of enlightenment it represents. These are the qualities that we want to achieve and to these to touch our bodies in the form of a pendant is very blessed.
-
Nice! It is very good to give away pendants to someone in order for that person to be able to make a connection with Lord Shugden or Buddhism. Why not, these pendants is nicely design and it can be a gift for any occasions.
-
I just bought 2 of the stainless steel pendants for myself and family member today. I like the simple design which is well made and the size is just right to my liking.
i got them from ds.com online store and it was delivered wrapped in a nice pouch. By keeping dorje shugden with me keeps me protected by any obstacles that may arise daily.
