Thank you for constantly creating new products for us. Where I live, it is very difficult to have access to praying objects, more so Dorje Shugden merchandise. This starter kit is a very good idea as it is so practical. I will use it as a travelling kit as I travel often and I can now set up altars in hotel rooms. The Tibetans were nomadic in nature and carried thankas with them. Today's practitioners carry starter kits like these. Times have changed but the practice remains.

Dear Rihanna,
Maybe you are a modern nomad since you say you travel so much! Or perhaps a Tibetan in your past life.

I like what you said about that times have changed but the practice remains. I feel that Buddhism has really been a faith that has evolved over time to keep up with contemporary developments.

Dorje Shugden practice is relatively new, being only 350 years old or so, but I like it that even though it is a few centuries old, I feel that Dorje Shugden is so close to us and through products like this, more and more people in these modern times can learn about this fantastic practice.

All in ONE!

This set really comes in handy for beginner to want to get to know more about Dorje Shugden practice.  The comic summarized the story of Dorje Shugden in a glance and a more detail booklet of the origin of the practice enable us to get a better understanding despite the controversial which confuses people's mind.  For those who wants to take one step further to start practice can start immediately!  and it is also a great gift for people!  Even though it is very commercial but during this degenerate times, it is vital to preserve Buddha's teachings in whatever way we could as long as it is not disrespectful to the Buddha and contradicts the teaching.

I hope people support this product and spread the practice far and wide.

Wow...this fantastic!!! It is also be very useful who is rarely know about Dorje Shugden but having doubt about Him because of what CTA have created their version of Dorje Shugden. With this complete set, which illustrate a true wisdom, compassion and protection from Lord Dorje Shugden which will be very beneficial for who wants to take His practice seriously. Hopefully the next badge of this box set will contained a prayer book as well just like what Ensapa suggested.

Actually, the boxset includes the "An Introduction To Dorje Shugden" booklet.  There is Dorje Shugden Prayers in it. There is a short Kangso of Dorje Shugden that includes
  • A Condensed Practice,
    Praise,
    Kawang,
    Exhortation for Activity,
    Serkym Offering,
    Offering and Requests,
    Mantras &
    Vajrasattva's 100-Syllable Mantra

I also found the "Prayer by the 5th Dalai Lama to Dorje Shugden" in it that I use in my daily prayer.

May all be blessed by Lord Dorje Shugden!

Honestly, I don't really like the whole commercialism of this gift set but I understand it will bring tremendous benefit to a lot of people out there. Delivering and packaging Dorje Shugden this way will bring the practice to many people. This is the only way to go for today's world.

I had similar feelings towards the Dorje Shugden comic when it first came out on this site. However, I do find that the artwork is very good and the story is pretty accurate. Nonetheless, I rejoice and I do hope that these packages will go all over the world and deliver Dorje Shugden's blessings all over the world.

I do agree with Big Uncle on the commercialism aspect however we are living in the degenerate age and to "get to" the masses we need advertisement, we need social media and all of that comes in nice "packaging" which in turn spurs commercialism. It cannot be avoided in this day and age. We change with the times... just look at our own pictures 20 years ago... so why can't Buddhism adapt and change to... at least in the way it is disseminated and made available to the masses.

I do find the box set a very convenient way of spreading the practice as it has all the elements for someone to start practicing immediately. And on another note is is perfect for practitioners who travel as this is the perfect travelling set. Prior to this I would have a tsa tsa and various other bits and bobs that I carry along in my luggage and I set up a make shift alter in my hotel room wherever I am in the world. With this box set, it is literally a "plug and play" phenomenon. Love it!

Finally they make perfect gifts for friends as it provides all the basics for a an aspiring practitioner. Kudos to the people behind this and may more innovative ideas be created in the spread of Dorje Shugden!

I'm thinking, since it is a boxed set, can it be sold in bookshops? Wouldnt it be amazing for someone to go to a bookshop, saw the boxed set and decide to buy it out of curiosity and it plants imprints into their minds and they reap benefits from the practice, and then spread it to their friends? I think that would be a really awesome thing to happen. As more and more people would know about Dorje Shugden, they could only benefit from it and if they have any doubts, they could always come here to find out for themselves everything about Dorje Shugden.

This is great! A Dorje Shugden beginners set sounds like an actual fantastic idea!

There are two main reasons why i think that this set is going to be a good idea. One, it is a good way in getting people to start practicing Dorje Shugden. By allowing and offering people the opportunity to practice Dorje Shugden, it will surely spread Dorje Shugdens teaching to many more people around the world. Two, because the set it so easy to understand and use, a lot of people will be convinced that Dorje Shugdens teachings are practical and effective. Not only would this also bring more people to practice Dorje Shugden, but it would also encourage more people to be loyal practitioners.

It is really wonderful that the team behind the Dorje Shugden online shop have come up with this brilliant and useful product that will help many people who are keen to learn more about Dorje Shugden and also for those who want to start the basic practice of Dorje Shugden.

This whole gift set concept is a really unique and very well thought idea that is both beautiful and practical as well!

Would be great if they made it available in more languages soon so that more people around the world can learn more about Dorje Shugden!

I do agree that the Dorje Shugden gift box set is beautiful and very practical as it has all that are needed for a beginner to practise. Definitely a nice gift to anyone who wishes to connect with the Protector for his blessings.  Other than giving it as Christmas presents as many suggested, we could also offer the gift sets to our Lama during holy auspicious events, ie. Lama's Birthday, Je Tsongkapa Day, Losar Day or even our own birthdays. How wonderfully beneficial this holy gift box could be!! Thank you for making it available online so that anyone  and everyone can be blessed (as long as they have internet, of course). Kudos!
