I was just wondering if anyone has read this? At first glance, it seems like the usual tripe. A second glance confirms it. Publishing it on Kindle is a good way to spread propaganda without spending too much dosh though! If only the so-called "Dolgyal Shugden Research Society" would do some REAL research and present an honest and fair angle on the issue, but obviously their only objective is to malign - which is definitely NOT Buddhist in the slightest.
Dolgyal Shugden: A History [Kindle Edition]http://www.amazon.com/Dolgyal-Shugden-The-Research-Society-ebook/dp/B00KSP5K20Publication Date: May 2, 2014
Book DescriptionMany visitors attending public talks and teachings of the Dalai Lama have been shocked to encounter nearby crowds of angry protesters, people dressed in Tibetan Buddhist monastic robes, proclaiming the Dalai Lama to be a "liar," "hypocrite," "dictator," etc., and accusing him of robbing them of their religious freedom.
Dolgyal Shugden: A History reveals with clear evidence, how these protests have been organized by a Tibetan monk, Kelsang Gyatso, and have been coordinated and populated by his followers, members of his "New Kadampa Tradition." It also provides in depth research to show how, though the demonstrations purport to object to the Dalai Lama's repudiation of their worship of the Dolgyal Shugden, considered by most Tibetans to be a mundane, somewhat demonic spirit, their main aim is simply to attack the Dalai Lama by damaging his reputation, in parallel with the present Chinese government's worldwide attempts to do the same.
This book seeks to clarify the ignorance and misconceptions surrounding the Dolgyal Shugden spirit cult and its relationship with the Dalai Lamas of Tibet, and goes on to further analyze the record and development of the schismatic New Kadampa Tradition, unveiling the cultic structures and dogmas, the financial mechanisms, the international affiliations, and the driving motivations of its leadership that keep it running and expanding its missionary activities.
