Dalai Lama slams Trump’s proposed wall during speech in Hyderabad

[Ringo Starr]

Your Holiness, the first wall that needs to come down is the one that was built as a direct result of Your Holiness' splittist directive regarding Dorje Shugden in 1996. It has been 20 years with much suffering.

"I feel the new President of America creates a wall": Dalai Lama

The wall that separates non-Shugden Gaden Shartse Monastery from Shugden-practicing Shar Gaden Monastery is really  reminiscent of the Berlin Wall. It divides a formerly united place and people. Guess the Tibetan government in exile or the CTA would like to think that it is like the Great Wall of China that kept the barbarians out of China in ancient times. But, along the way, I guess, the Emperor thought nothing of the sacrifice of lives in building that. Fast forward to modern times, the sacrifice of lives is still irrelevant to the powers that be in building walls like the Gaden monastery wall and the proposed Trump wall.

People have forgotten the middle way. They are either for or against the wall and not given much thought to resolving the issue that brought about the proposal for the wall. In this instance, the Dalai Lama was in position to say anything about the Trump wall so long as the Gaden wall exists and is functional. It only makes a mockery of his words.

It's a sad state of affairs I can only pray and hope that cooler heads prevail.

The evil dalie is just joining the anti-Trump puppet chorus, and reading the prayerbook of his disgruntled Abrahamic guru and puppet master, George Soros.

That's what his was hired for, after all.

Meanwhile, some in-Buddhistic people insist on disparaging Chenrezig, seeing the great bodhisattva as the mere puppet of a terrorism-suppporting financier!

Yes, we all hope this Dorje Shugden ban wall between Shar Gaden Monastery and Gaden Shartse Monastery comes down soon. It shows pure segregation and persecution created by the CTA who freeloads money from Western governments to keep their dictatorship running.

It is more than just a wall. It is the invisible wall that still exists in the heart of Tibetans, especially those in India where CTA rules.



In 2015, His Holiness the Dalai Lama admitted there is segregation in the Tibetan community. Kate saunders, his spokesperson and ICT Communications Director also admits to segregation signs in India, totally disrespectful of India.






The identity card of Sera Monastery that includes the oath “… NOT to propitiate Dorjee Shugden and NOT to have any associate (sic) with the followers of Shugden.”



The implementation of identity badge to identify monks in Sera Monastery who do not practice Dorje Shugden. There is no need to identify the monks in the monastery, so the only logical reason for this is so that monks without a badge in public will be marked out for ‘segregation and discrimination’ in their community.

The segregation is terrible, but there is a worse tragedy that many in Mundgod will never forget for the rest of their lives. Many monks still recall the September 2000 incident where around 3,000 Tibetans descended on Dhokhang Khangtsen at Ganden Shartse Monastery, attacking the monastery and its monks with stones and bricks, the reason was to riot against a particular group of monks’ practice of Dorje Shugden.

When will this end? When will the corrupted leaders in the Central Tibetan Administration start to care about the welfare of the general Tibetan public? Not every Tibetan has the means or chance to just leave India to settle abroad (like how the CTA leaders arranged for their own families) and so they had to put up with all the segregation, disharmony, disunity and hatred the leaders continue to encourage by not addressing the ban on Dorje Shugden.

How many more years??
