I think this post could have be an answer to some people who have doubt on H.H Dalai Lama, especially when the act of ban is quoted as devine play.
Right. Such people will remove all their doubts, and realize that the “divine play” fairy tale is just the subtly coded message, not supposed to be understood literally, sent by great teachers such as the previous Trijang Rinpoche, who was well aware of the brutal character of the evil dalie, in order to avoid direct confrontation with, and the merciless revenge of, the obnoxious theocrat, and therefore much more damage to Gelugpas and Shugdenpas in absolutistic, theocratic Tibetan culture.
Trijang Rinpoche himself clearly mentions the envious nature of the evil dalie, which leaves nor room for doubt about his actual, although skilfully concealed, thought. Trijang Rinpoche knew better than anyone of us how to protect the Gelug lineage, and being himself a master of divine play, skilfully told people the suitable story according to the circumstances of his time.
However, the nature of religious fundamentalists is always to interpret scripture literally, in ways repugnant to human reason, and this is precisely what fanatical religionists like you do, on top of it wanting to impose on others as some kind of absolute “truth” your abhorrent, politically motivated view that the evil criminal dalie is some kind of “noble being”, everything on the mere basis of a literal, uncontextualized, thoughtless reading of Trijang Rinpoche's words, no matter how much this violates direct perception, reason, Buddhist principles such a compassion, and even basic principles of human decency.
