Thank you for all the energetic demonstrators, there is a good share of them at Hamburg. Very grateful for to everyone who made the time and effort to create awareness on the ban. Really appreciate it.

Good initiative. From the post above can see so much media coverage on HHDL’s visit, although don’t understand what’s written on the paper, I’m sure the peaceful demonstration would be included in the news too. Be it negative or positive, it somehow creates publicity for this issue.

A heartfelt thanks to all of those demonstrators from around the world who spent their time in Hamburg, Germany trying to raise awareness about the Dalai Lama’s ban against Wisdom Buddha, Dorje Shugden, a traditional main stream protector practice of the Gelugpas. His discrimination has caused tremendous suffering to millions of people who have no voice to stand up for themselves. My thoughts are with you all the heroes and heroines!

Thanks for bringing the coverage of all the peaceful demonstrations around the world against DorjeShugden ban. It seems to me everywhere HHTDL goes thee are the DorjeShugden practitioners asking for religious freedom. These protests are always well organized and peaceful. The DorjeShugden practioners are merely asking for religious freedom, they don’t incite nor carry out violence against HHTDL, CTA and anti-Shugden groups but they are called the “devil” worshipers. Usually one would expect the devil worshipping groups to be the one making trouble and inciting violence but when it comes to DorjeShugden it is the “righteous” groups that are making trouble and inciting violence against DorjeShugden practitioners many who are simple monks who have done nothing but hold their vows and practice what they are taught by their teachers and their teachers’ teachers….

All Tibetan Shugden worshippers in European countries are considered as ” Cancerous ” among the local Tibetans. They are to be avoided said by the Dalai Lama`s Representative Thupten Wangchuk during his public interview. It is true and many Non-Schugden Tibetans behave themselves cold and look to Shugden Tibetans as great enemy of the Tibetan society.
It is too late to change this undiresirable social developement now. China is the one who is laughing and watching this nice show of free cost.

SHUGDEN ISSUE OR CONFLICT WOULD GET SOLVED AS SOON AS DALAI LAMA RETURNS TO TIBET. ALL THE UNNECESSARY ENERGY SPENT SO FAR BY PRO- AND ANTI-SHUGDEN PEOPLE COULD BE SAVED FOR NEGLECTED SOCIAL INTERPRISES IN TIBET.
THE BELOVED DEMAND FROM CTA FOR GREATER TIBET OR SMALLER AUTONOMOUS TIBET DOESN`T MAKE ANY DIFFERENCE AS LONG AS TIBETANS HAVE TO LIVE OR WANT TO LIVE UNDER THE CHINESE GOVERNMENT.
THE ISSUE IS THE GEOGRAPHICAL TIBET SHOULD BE LEFT FOR THE TIBETANS AND ALSO FOR LIMITED CONTROLLED NUMBER OF CHINESE POPULATION.
Eli

@sangay tenzin why is the tibetan issue tied up with Dorje Shugden. One is clearly political, the other is politicised. Dorje Shugden is a spiritual matter, please lift the ban. If the Dalai Lama were to life the ban more time and resources will go towards Tibetan independence.
On another note, great to see more and more tibetan youths protesting this draconian ban. That they care and are aware of the injustice that is going on.

If all Tibetans in and outside Tibet start worshipping SHUGDEN sincerely, the Tibet Umay Lam policy will be accepted by the new Chinese Government without agenda.
Start rethinking and download this new program of worshiping Shugden and delete all the old anti-shugden policy.

They are really done the good job as rain and shine to proceed with the demonstration. They are the role model to all the Shugden practitioners that speak out to appeal the religious freedom and lift the ban. The awareness need to be created to the whole world that there is nothing wrong to worship Dorje Shugden. Let’s continue spread the awareness through social media or demonstration just to humbly request to lift the ban. I always believe that one person can not do it but with all the Shugden practitions all over the world can make it success.

All the information on this and all dhogyal websites are created by Kundeling lama. Kundeling speaks very good English and has many students in Europe who are fanatically against HH Dalai Lama. Kundeling: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P0WLTvDlGqE
Kundeling does all the informational mailing to many organizations around the world in the futile attempt to destroy the reputation of the Dalai Lama. Kundeling was ‘recognized’ as a reincarnation by Lama Gangchen in Italy. They all join forces with NKT to defame Dalai Lama using dhogyal. This is all confirmed by monks of Sera Mey Monastery. Beware of these ‘lamas’.

Xi Jinping is visiting India, would ISC consider going to India to protest during his visit. This would really bring the fight to the CTA and Dalai Lama’s home turf. Plus the Chinese and Indian press would be exposed to the demonstration that ISC can unleash.
It will be quite dangerous to demonstrate in India, but there isn’t going to be a better opportunity to bring the fight to the Indian subcontinent and get that kind of mileage.

There are so many media coverage from German media on Dalai Lama’s visit and ISC protest. I am also happy to see there is a banner that shows all the discriminative signs preventing DS practitioners from entering their shops, these are the proofs that CTA does encourage discrimination within Tibetan community.
Yes, Dalai Lama should stop lying about Dorje Shugden being a demon who will harm him and Tibet, he should stop lying about there is no ban on Dorje Shugden worshipping at all.
More medias have shown their interest on this issue, if they are not bias more truth will be revealed. Before this happen, CTA if they truly love their leader the Dalai Lama, they should just lift the ban to protect the image of loving Dalai Lama.
