  1. Not only is there a ban on Dorje Shugden practice endorsed and sanctioned by the Dalai Lama, there is full-fledged machinery operationalizing it, funded by none other than collections of donation and aids by Dalai Lama from around the world. Imagine the horror when all the reputable kind sponsors find out that their money is being spent to actively:

    1. Inflict suffering among the Tibetan public especially on Shugden practitioners by isolating them and rip off their opportunity to survive.

    2. Instigate and permit violent and bloody invasions of private residences of Dorje Shugden practitioners e.g. the Thubten family and also private residences of erudite lama e.g. the 84 year old Gen. Chonze.

    3. Prohibit Dorje Shugden practitioners from entering Sera Monastery, South India.

    4. Emulate the act of Terrorist Organization by publishing a hit list of Shugden practitioners on the CTA’s website, inciting active persecution since the details of Shugden practitioners was made available publicly. If this is not act of terrorist, what is?

    5. Expel hundreds of Dorje Shugden monks from their monasteries for upholding the lineage passed on to them by their Gurus.

    6. Eradicate human rights by putting up signs at public places i.e. monasteries and hospitals as well as private spaces like retail and grocery stores to disallow Dorje Shugden practitioners from entering.

    7. Deny Dorje Shugden practitioners access to medical assistance in public hospital. Does the kind donors from Germany, Switzerland, the US know about this?

    8. Shredding human rights to pieces by revoking all legal documents of Tibetan Dorje Shugden practitioners i.e. their identity card, driver’s license or passport. This is akin of losing one’s identity and freedom. Can you imagine that the US money is used to support this!

    The voices of Tibetan people, especially the Shugden practitioners are muffled and ignored, Dharamsala actively promotes unsubstantiated poisoned opinions of individuals to degrade Dorje Shugden practitioners. There is no religious freedom nor freedom of expression in the Tibetan community.

    CTA is committing blue murder as the fate of those who go against the authorities would be faced with dangerous consequences. Yet the world stand tolerance because CTA operates all these fouls in the guise of Dalai Lama and his supremacy position within the Tibetan community.

    This is inhumane and injustice. Please help to lift Dorje Shugden ban and end the sufferings and harms.

Contemplate This

.…Instead of turning away people who practise Dorje Shugden, we should be kind to them. Give them logic and wisdom without fear, then in time they give up the ‘wrong’ practice. Actually Shugden practitioners are not doing anything wrong. But hypothetically, if they are, wouldn’t it be more Buddhistic to be accepting? So those who have views against Dorje Shugden should contemplate this. Those practicing Dorje Shugden should forbear with extreme patience, fortitude and keep your commitments. The time will come as predicted that Dorje Shugden’s practice and it’s terrific quick benefits will be embraced by the world and it will be a practice of many beings.
