Dorje Shugden Beginner's Gift Set
« on: September 07, 2012, 08:18:33 AM »
Wow! I just saw a new product being launched on the DS online shop. It is a Dorje Shugden Gift Set.
This is such a great idea for beginners who wants to start the practice. This set makes it easy for people who are interested to know more about Dorje Shugden and wants to start the practice. Furthermore, the price is very reasonable! It makes a great gift to give to family and friends.

The set contains:

1. DS Comic books which tells the story of Dorje Shugden
2. An introduction to DS which explains the iconography of DS
3. A DS Tsa Tsa where the beginner can start to pray and visualise DS during their meditation
4. A DS pendant where the beginner can wear and be blessed by DS

Check it out!

This is interesting and beautifully design and well thought. And the packaging is definitely decent as gift packs for people who wishes to know more about the dharma king DS. I've got it all separately minus the box to keep the items.... :)

How i wish there's a empty box for me to keep the blessed items .haha

Wow! This is such a wonderful gift set. Introduction to Dorje Shugden, a tsa tsa for the altar and a pendant all packaged in an attractive box. Everything a Shugden-pa will need personally and also a few extra as gifts to loved ones. Your team is so creative and thoughtful to create this box set.

This is such a good idea and very practical too.  It can also double up as a portable mini altar - bringing the whole set with you whenever you travel. All you ever need packed neatly inside a box.

Is there a version available in other languages?

Yes it is such a great idea to have a portable altar to bring when travelling. It is a complete protection for us either to bring along or even to give as present to loved ones and friends.

It will be better if it is available in other languages as well, then more people will be blessed by the King Dorje Shugden and be protected.

The two items in the box set i.e. DS Comic books which tells the story of Dorje Shugden and the introduction to DS which explains the iconography of DS will be very useful for us to introduce this practice to new people and avoid the mistakes of giving wrong information.

Keep up the good works :)

Wow! I have got to get a few sets. I recently gave my tsa tsa away to a friend who was facing some problems with bad dreams. I also taught her the mantra and introduced her to this website. This was about 2 weeks ago. She has since slept much better. Therefore, DS helps. And this is a great gift for many to start their practice!

Thank you dorjeshugden.com!

This is a brilliant idea indeed! This so called box set is important for beginners to have so that they can understand and learn more of Lord Shugden and the history behind it. It also helps people to have a clear understand about Lord Shugden and the controversy behind it which is imperative for one to know and be clear of. Whoever came up with this idea must be very creative and I must congratulate the team behind this. Bravo!

May a lot of people be benefitted from this box set and may this precious practice of Protector Shugden spread far and wide.

In olden times thangkas were an effective means for one's practice when traveling from one place to another. Set up tent to camp, unfurl the thangkas from the horse's saddle and set up an altar. Walk some distance to fetch water from a river/stream as offerings. Today, few people travel on horses unless in remote hilly regions. This box set is ideal for modern people who travels in modern transportation. Check into a hotel, unpack and set up the altar. Open up hotel's fridge and viola! Different types of beverages for offerings. How convenient.

Oh my! So convenient and affordable. Perfect to carry around in my bag and as gift for people I love. It would be great fo people who do not have internet access and the book which explains the iconography will be PERFECT! Like what samayakeeper said, its so EASY to set up an altar whenever we go anywhere. As easy as 1 2 3... Thank you for this beautiful gift set...

This is something new. Very innovative of this website team to devise such an attractive way to introduce new practitioners to dorje shugden. And very complete in its own way, based on what I can see of the giftset. I will probably purchase a few sets for some of my closets friends who, thus far, have been tip-toeing around his practi, but never really started. Now there will be no excuse! Excellent work people!

Brilliant idea. I hope this sells well...very professional way of spreading the lineage, and Im sure the teachings in it are authentic and accurate too. Yeah like thor said, no excuse not to start our practice if its this easy - you dont even need a lama there to help you (not that Im discounting the importance of our teachers...you know, like the CTA seems so fond of doing).

This is so cool.

I am going to get a few sets to give away. This website administration is so innovative and progressive. You guys definitely have a lot of ideas to bring Shugden to the world.

Keep it up.

PS : You should have a donation tab for the viewers to donate as I am sure you guys needs money to maintain and create new ideas.

Wow! very nice!

The tsa tsa is so beautiful! and the packaging is very modern, neat and easy to unpack/repack, ideal for travelers.

It would be great if there is a specially designated prayer book with Dorje Shugden's prayers, and a separate book that describes the practice commentary.

Honestly, I don't really like the whole commercialism of this gift set but I understand it will bring tremendous benefit to a lot of people out there. Delivering and packaging Dorje Shugden this way will bring the practice to many people. This is the only way to go for today's world.

I had similar feelings towards the Dorje Shugden comic when it first came out on this site. However, I do find that the artwork is very good and the story is pretty accurate. Nonetheless, I rejoice and I do hope that these packages will go all over the world and deliver Dorje Shugden's blessings all over the world.

What is beautiful product!  It is most practical and useful for new comers to the Dorje Shugden practice.  Everything they need to know about the practice is provided in this Do it Yourself Kit!  It provides a great kick-start to this powerful practice.  In this day and age where people are constantly on the go and do not have much time to source for a practice, a kit like this is so relevant. A must have for the fans of Dorje Shugden!
