This is an interview with Kensur Rinpoche Lobsang Chojin of Chatreng Sampheling Monastery. He speaks passionately about following the instructions of one's root lama, in this case Kyabje Trijang Dorje Chang and his views about Gyalchen Dorje Shugden. He also said it is important to have a genuine guru who can explain the Dharma and guide us on the spiritual path. He only believes in his root Guru and the Protector no matter what others say.

He also elaborated about how the Dalai Lama was escorted out of Tibet by Chatreng lamas and people through the instruction of Trijang Rinpoche who was advised by Dorje Shudgen during that critical period. Also how some the Chatreng monks gave their lives in a fight with the Chinese protecting the Dalai Lama.

Thank you for the very inspiring video. I really love the part where  Kensur Rinpoche Lobsang Chojin will only believe what his root Guru and what his protector says because that is how Dharma practice should be. The Dalai Lama's edict should always be followed by his followers, but for someone to choose the Dalai Lama over their root Guru it's not really nice indeed because it reflects that the practitioner is more political than serious on their Dharma practice. Of course, Dalai Lama's students should avoid Dorje Shugden, but it does not give them the right to force their beliefs on everyone else and mislead them, and neither do they have the right to criticize Dorje Shugden followers. They should just keep quiet and keep to their own Dharma practices.
