This is superb news! Although personally I don't understand the beautiful Chinese language. Imagine the thousands of people Dorje Shugden's name can reach! In this modern age, so many people rely IT to spread information around hence with such a person blogging about Dorje Shugden, it'll be HUGE! Look at the effort of Dorje Shugden's practitioners! Thank you Singaporeans for sending items to Prof Kong.

To all of you practicing Dorje Shugden out there, you are not alone! Together we can contribute and the collective merits will help LIFT THE BAN!  ;D

It is amazing that Dorje Shudgen is reaching out to the masses in China, simply because there are more people in China than elsewhere in the world and they all need spiritual guidance and something that will bring them more than just material happiness. When more people practice Dorje Shugden, they will also grow inside, spiritually as well and that is more important than anything else: having more people benefitting and being connected to the Dharma.

When the practice spreads wide not only to the tibetans in China, but to all the Chinese in China and becoming a mainstream practice amongst the more educated Chinese, the Dalai Lama will have to unban Dorje Shugden because there is no way for him to tell the whole of China that they are doing a bad practice as all the historical records and information about Dorje Shugden can be acquired easily, untainted by the modifications of the CTA.

No matter how we want to see it, China does have a lot of people and they all do deserve to be connected to the Dharma. China is allowing people to practice faiths of their choice but of course it has to be sanctioned by the government to prevent propaganda and to make sure that people don't go wild or that there is discord in the country. Because a government's duty is to protect the country and the people in it.

When China encourages DS practice, it will also influence the other chinese countries such as Taiwan to practice it as well and thus, spread the the practice even further. And when they turn out to be all right and turn out to be better people, what happens next is the world will realize that it is actually a beneficial practice.

I really rejoice at this wonderful news! I think it is incredible that there are Dorje Shugden practitioners who would use the time, effort and money to send Dorje Shugden materials to Professor Kong Qing Dong. The effect of the action of giving the Dorje Shugden materials to Professor Kong Qing Dong that resulted in him posting on his Weibo will create karmic links between this professor and his followers to Dorje Shugden even if it is just a karmic imprint in their mind.
 
Weibo, which means micro-blog in Chinese, is the way to go! This way, Dorje Shugden can spread faster! Social media networks are one of the many ways that we can use to spread the lineage of our wonderful protector. When Dorje Shugden spreads further in China, more and more people benefit. The Chinese will benefit not only on a spiritual level, they also benefit on a secular level which the Chinese people would initially be attracted to.
 
May the wonderful Singaporean Dorje Shugden practitioners have long life and happiness and also may Professor Kong Qing Dong and his Weibo followers have a good relationship with Dorje Shugden. May Dorje Shugden spread far and wide in China.

This just reaches the Chinese. It will not reach anyone else. What good does that do? There's no large or powerful Tibetan Buddhist organization in the Chinese speaking world which clearly identifies the Chinese aren't interested. You have to hit the non-Chinese speaking world. No one is tweeting about Shugden. They trust HHDL.

Reaching to 513 million Chinese in an instant is better than the non-Chinese speaking world for now. When more prominent people tweet, it'll catch on. Coke didn't become popular in China because there were people who were already interested. It took the company many millions of US dollars to promote the drink before it became famous.

Dorje Shugden is widely practiced in Tibet and Kham area. There are millions of people there doing the practice. The rest of China just needs to know about this practice which has been around for 3 centuries and was widely practiced by the Gelug lineage in China.

When China becomes the world's number 1 country, the whole world will follow Chinese language, music, culture and even religion. So imagine, when the world is practising Dorje Shugden just because the Chinese are? Now do you see the importance of promoting Dorje Shugden's practice in China?

Looks like the prophecy in Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen's biography is starting to take form and manifest via ONLINE!
After this in the future in the Eastern City,
Disciples of Manjushri’s pureland will increase,
Then in the tribal regions the Dark Land,
Completely light the lamp of dharma,
In short with thoughts of love and compassion,
Perfectly accomplish others’ purpose to greatly benefit beings.


It give much more credibility for a celebrity professor to tweet such positive comments about Dorje Shugden. From this tweet, it sounded like the professor studied the materials sent by the Singaporeans and understood the ban situation. A thinker, someone of deep knowledge agrees that the ban is more than meets the eye. If the Singaporeans keep up the good work in sending this all around the world, eventually more and more celebrities will arise with the same effect. Given this, HHDL is just one celebrity who is against DS.

Just a thought, even though there was no website stated in his tweet, people who retweeted must be curious in the first place of who Dorje Shugden is and searched for Dorje Shugden's information online before retweeting. Hmm … I wonder if there is an increase of visitors to dorjeshugden.com or xiongdeng.com since then?

THIS IS THE POWER OF WONDERFUL WORLD WIDE WEB who gave birth to the wonderful world of SOCIAL MEDIA.... it is like a different realm that we tap in to connect with the rest of the world! In just one click... your voice, your thoughts goes out to millions, sometimes billions. This tool is probably the strongest and most powerful tool in the world right now in influencing and changing perspective by the masses.
It use to be the Television... But Now it is this thing we call Social Media.

Everything has it's Pros and Cons but it all depends on one's motivation and what one does with it. Imagine if every Dorje Shugden practitioner starts to TWEET just ONCE a day about Dorje Shugden... my gosh the Fireworks it will create! And all u need is a celebrity like this Professor who has huge influence to re-tweet you and walah.... the reach is huge 700,000 or MORE....

xiongdeng.com must go global so that more and more Chinese will get to know Dorje Shuden, lord knows they need it as the stress of materialism eats in to them. And why is China so important one may think... well because it is spreading the Dharma to the NO.1 Super Power Nation of billions who will then inevitably influence, infiltrate, spread Dharma to the world. And let's not forget Dorje Shugden's gave roots in China's rich cultural heritage....

From Shugden’ s puja praise:

“Enthroned as guardian of the Yellow Hat Teachings
By the Chinese emperor, the Dalai Lama, and his regent,
You generated the intent to protect the Teachings from now
Until the Buddha, Aspiring One, praise to you!”

????????????????????

China is not new to Tibetan Buddhism their highest authorities practiced Tibetan Buddhism and Lama Tsongkhapa as seen at Yong He Gong, and due the efficacy of the protector practices the royalty probably hid a lot of such practices from the public for fear their power and influence can be undermined by the rest of their population.

China is investing a lot of resources to bring the Panchen Lama into prominence. And there is no need to think that the Chinese Panchen Lama could be the wrong one, a Buddha can manifest in many forms all at once. Before the Communist took over China was predominantly Buddhist, their culture has been for thousands of years very suitable for the spread of Buddhism. And Dorje Shugden is ripe to spread in this land once again.

Have a look at the Buddhist Forums that China is sponsoring and promoting!

Thanks for sharing this wonderful news.
Currently there are more of more China lamas such as Lama Jampa Ngodup and Lama Thubten Phurpu who practice Dorje Shugden are giving teaching and initiation  of Dorje Shugden openly in China.
The recent Denma Gonsa Rinpoches Enthronement in July 2014 in Tibet has achieved  the attendance of 200,000 devotees. (http://www.dorjeshugden.com/all-articles/features/denma-gonsa-rinpoches-enthronement/)
With the growth of China, Tibet and Mongolia, social media such as wei-chat, wei-bo will help to spread the Dorje Shugden teaching and the info of it’s ban to more people.
