His Holiness the All-Knowing Panchen Rinpoche was a massive figure among the Tibetans for centuries. Known for his scholarship, occult abilities and strong compassion to disseminate the dharma to all who came in contact with him. We are very fortunate the complete compilation of his writings, meditations and prayers are offered here. Although it is in Tibetan it may have value that you may print out to keep on your shrines, offer to your Tibetan teachers or for translators to bring its rich contents into English. It is the first time it has been brought out of Tibet and www.dorjeshugden.com is proud to obtain a copy and make it available for everyone.
Panchen Lama or Panchen Rinpoche was a great patron of Tibetan language, arts, culture, history, religion, scriptures, ancient texts, traditions and a scholar of Buddhism himself. He was requested to give transmissions, teachings, initiations and advice all over Tibet to hundreds of thousands constantly. When the Panchen Lama gave public discourses, literally hundreds of thousands would attend. His teachings, although drawn from Tsongkapa’s writings, would attract scholars, teachers, masters and lineage holders of all traditions of Tibetan Buddhism. From Government Ministers both Tibetan and Chinese would attend his discourses to the humblest farmer. People would queue whole days to get a glimpse or blessing by His Holiness Panchen Rinpoche. Panchen Rinpoche is much revered in Tibet without rival except the Dalai Lama.

What is interesting is Dorje Shugden was not a minor practice propitiated by a few but held as a main protector by millions in Tibet. The highest lamas, Geshes, Scholars and practitioners kept Dorje Shugden close to them throughout their lives assisting them to overcome their obstacles. Of course the disciples of these Masters number in the millions. Majority of Gelugs practiced Dorje Shugden as well as many Sakyas. The Nyingmas and Kagyus had no issues with this enlightened protector prior to the ban instituted in 1996 by the Tibetan Exiled govt and His Holiness the Dalai Lama. The ban in short is a direct order from the Tibetan leadership to stop all practices of Dorje Shugden with immediate effect and all those who continue are outcasts from Tibetan mainstream society. It has been written into the Tibetan constitution that all Dorje Shugden practitioners may not enjoy the same rights as non-practitioners and may not attend any of the gatherings both religious and secular by the Dalai Lama. It is hard to fathom but this is the rule by the Tibetan exiled leadership.
Here is a short list of Great masters who have propitiated Dorje Shugden past and present. Even those who have propitiated Dorje Shugden for shorter period are listed here. The point is they have propitiated at one time or another.

And this is just to list a few.
Among these great masters who kept Dorje Shugden as their principal protector, was His Holiness the 10th Panchen Rinpoche. Panchen Rinpoche even built a large extended Chapel especially dedicated to Dorje Shugden in his private Monastery of Tashi Lunpo.
His Holiness Panchen Rinpoche himself composed a special ritual and meditation of Dorje Shugden spanning 26 pages which you can see in this book. He found the practice very beneficial and also worth the effort to bring the practice to many others by composing this text to Dorje Shugden for his disciples and those interested. Dorje Shugden was a very important personal protector of the 10th Panchen Rinpoche as well as Tashi Lunpo Monastery.
His Holiness Panchen Rinpoche’s stature, authority and benefit to Tibet and Tibetans for centuries cannot be denied. In other words, he is no ordinary lama but a very illustrious one with hundreds of thousands of disciples throughout Tibet, Mongolia, India and China. Certainly he cannot be wrong in his observation of Dorje Shugden.
We are proud to present the book in its entirety here.

Translation:
Manjunatha’s (Tsongkapa) Lineage protector Dorje Shugden and five forms wrathful propitiations and confessional prayers and fulfillment of activities rites
By 10th Panchen Lama
The Panchen Lama’s prayer invoking Dorje Shugden’s blessings can be found from Page 238 to Page 264, or by clicking HERE.
Joyous Signs accompanies the birth of Panchen Lama’s “Dorje Shugden’s *Kangsol”
The 10th Panchen Lama Lobsang Trinley Chokyi Gyaltsen Rinpoche an accomplished master of Sutra and Tantra has written volumes of commentaries and sadhanas which are still widely used in Tibet today. One such powerful composition is the ritual of propitiating the great protector Dorje Shugden.
In the preface of this sadhana, it says that the Panchen Rinpoche have just commissioned a new painting of the five lineages of Dorje Shugden. Acharya Lobsang Jangchub and the Panchen Rinpoche both agreed that there is a need to have a shorter version of prayer for exhortation of activities from the protector.
Upon the request of Acharya Lobsang Jangchub, Panchen Rinpoche immediately wrote this prayer of the abbreviated form of Dorje Shugden’s Kangsol and named it “Manjunatha’s (Tsongkapa) Lineage protector Dorje Shugden and five forms wrathful propitiations and confessional prayers and fulfilment of activities rites” or “Melodious sound of Accomplishment of the Four Activities” for short.
Upon the completion of this prayer, he personally saw signs and had strong feelings that Dorje Shugden have been working hard to protect the Buddha Dharma in general and especially the lineage of Jamphel Nyingpo (Lama Tsongkhapa). He saw signs especially that the time has come for Dorje Shugden to show his miraculous powers.
True to his identity as a direct incarnation of Khedrup Je who studied under the great Lama Tsongkhapa himself, the Panchen Rinpoche also showed his mastery of composition and poetry in the Sadhana. An example of such poetry is in the praise of Dorje Shugden where the Panchen Rinpoche wrote the praise with the first letter of each verse with a Tibetan vowel. Such composition are only seen in praises to senior protectors such as Palden Lhamo and Kalarupa.
The Panchen Rinpoche also mentioned that he was filled with happiness and bliss throughout the duration of writing this sadhana. The Panchen Rinpoche signed off at the end of the composition with both his official name and also his ordination name, Tenzin Trinley Jigme Choje Wangchuk which endorses the validity of this piece of work. This sadhana was written in his own palace in Tashi Lhunpo in the Hall of Clear light and bliss.
We wish to share this important and exciting detail of this composition with everyone so that all who see this can benefit and may the auspiciousness of Dorje Shugden be with everyone!
