(Translation of Tibetan transcript of the Dalai Lama’s speech in Sera-May Monastery, which was broadcasted in Voice of Tibet Radio, a mouthpiece of Tibetan government in exile.)
Reporter: The Dalai Lama said that it was more harmful than beneficial if anyone who worship Dholgyal (Shugden) came to receive his initiation. He also made a statement with respect to Shugden.
The Dalai Lama: As for Kyabje Pabongkha, he is really like the real Heruka. He is the lord of Chakarasambhava’s father and mother; he is lord of Lamrim and Mind Training. That is really amazing. It is wrong that some criticize him. The previous Dalai Lama was imposing strict ban on Shugden. When the predecessor passed away, he has made great efforts with respect to Shugden. That is wrong. Therefore, knowing all things, I imposed ban on [Shugden]. It is wrong that some says this is order of the Dalai Lama. I am aware of the significant and reasons, as well as what the previous lamas have done. Then I imposed a ban [on Shugden]. These days, they are being supported by Communist China. Shugden devotees in Tibet are given especial help. They encourage people to worship Shugden. Some monasteries are asked to worship [Shugden]. These are the reasons. Most of you have already known. Today once again… over there they are making loud noises (laugh). They are debating. The debating is good. When they are making noise, it is not right if I say nothing (laugh). Sera-May monastery faced serious difficulties. Basically it is Pomra Khamtsen. Shugden devotees, being headstrong, …to beat and to kill.
…became real Chinese spirit. Therefore [they] do not know. I have nothing to say if they voluntarily and knowingly [worship Shugden]. It is religious freedom. It is up to you whatever deity you want to worship. But I should explain its source and background. This is my responsibility.
