WB could be right. Undercover Dorje Shugden practitioners would have to pretend otherwise, or their cover will be blown and they are exposed, which can be detrimental to their continued practice of Shugden.
Having said that, it is sad to note that the ban and the discouraging of Shugden practice appear to be having a negative impact on the widespread growth of Je Tsongkhapa's teachings, which are most needed for the people of this degenerate age. After all, Dorje Shugden arose as a Protector to protect Je Tsongkhapa's teachings. The Tibetans -in- exile in India are the ones most affected. All followers, lay and ordained, have been ordered to give up Shugden practice or face the consequences of defying the ban.
Many would have feared the consequences too much to want to defy the ban and practice Shugden. Where Shugden is practiced freely and without fear, Je Tsongkhapa's lineage teachings have been flourishing. This is because the flag-bearers of these teachings are ,at the same time, devout Shugden practitioners.They have ensured that as they spread Shugden practice, so do the teachings of Je Tsongkhapa grow. See this happening in Tibet and China and elsewhere in the Western world.
Yes, may the ban be lifted soon for Shugden practice to spread like wild-fire and the lineage teachings of Je Tsongkhapa to flourish everywhere.
