Worried About Religious Confrontations.
« on: April 08, 2015, 10:19:40 AM »

If the Dalai Lama is worried about regional conflicts and religious confrontations rocking us in the world, don't you think that first of all he should, as man of peace, set a good example by removing the Shugden ban? I totally agree our world is deeply interdependent, this is the more reason the ban must be stopped.  Dalai Lama's compassion must extend to everyone including Shugden Buddhists.  If Dalai Lama had looked into the past the Shugden ban had created much agony, tears, pain, torn monasteries and families apart, animosities, hatred, enemies, murders, and conflicts to millions of Shugden Buddhists in the world.  By reflecting these destructions of the ban we definitely can learn to build a better future by not discriminating religion and imposing religious apartheid in our society.  This ban is contrary to bringing world peace and harmony. 

I wonder what will the Japanese say to the Dalai Lama if they had known he had discriminated against Shugden Buddhists?  Will the Japanese welcome him with open arms and clamour for his teachings?  Will the Japanese ever trust the Dalai Lama again?



Dalai Lama tells Aichi students to build better future by looking to the past:

April 08, 2015

THE ASAHI SHIMBUN
NISSHIN, Aichi Prefecture--In an address to students at Aichi Gakuin University on April 7, the Dalai Lama said humankind must look ahead and not repeat the violence and bloodshed of the past century.

“It is time to create a better century by looking back on the 20th century,” the spiritual leader of Tibet told an audience of 2,000 at a guest lecture.

The 14th Dalai Lama said he is worried about regional conflicts and religious confrontations currently rocking the planet, and that people must show mutual understanding as a global society.

“Our world is deeply interdependent," he said. It is important to think of others, he added.

The Dalai Lama was joined on stage by journalist and the university's specially appointed professor Akira Ikegami.

“What advice would you give to students who are working hard and preparing for the future?” Ikegami asked the spiritual leader.

The Dalai Lama responded by saying that although he has spent most of his life in exile, he has lived as a free man.

“(Even though I have lived) as a refugee, I have been able to live like a normal human being, making friends at will,” he said, encouraging the students to take “an unbiased, objective and holistic view” of the world.

“What looks grim from one angle may look brighter from other points of view,” he said.

Icy,

This is not the first time that Dalai Lama speaks of peace, care, love and compassion.  It is mantra which in itself is great that all sentient beings should abide.  The speech is much the same from the Dalai Lama even when there are protests by Shugden devotees outside the premise where He is speaking. 

So what does it matter to these Japanese students, if they know of the ban, NOTHING, because it does not affect them.  They are only embraced by the image of the Dalai Lama, a poor "KIng'' whose country was alienated by the Chinese but yet is so very tolerant.  Feeding this delusion, many will not see beyond and for those who care, suffering is upon them.

But with any great movement for a change in this world, the worship of Dorje Shugden will prevail and maybe this current situation is a mode of purification to the devotees so that the eventual result will be even bigger than the Dalai Lama.

This is my humble opinion and with that let the ban be lifted soon.

The evil dalie claim to be “worried” about religious confrontations is like the thief crying “stop the thief”. Or like the pedophilic priest preaching sermons against sexual misconduct. The evil dalie's compulsive need to show concern for a misbehavior he actually engages in is a clear sign of his schizophrenic, Jekyll and Hyde split personality. Add to this his delusional, paranoid fears of a “spirit” (Dorje Shugden) wanting to destroy his life, and his cold indifference to the gruesome suffering of self-immolators, and we have the complete picture of an accomplished psychotic.

The perverse witch-hunt promoted by the evil dalie will hardly come to an end, as long as people insist on seeing this demented individual as something “holy” or as “Chenrezig”.
