In March 1996, His Holiness the Dalai Lama banned the popular Buddhist Dharma Protector Dorje Shugden. For over 350 years, countless attained masters including the Dalai Lama had relied on Dorje Shugden’s spiritual assistance, and openly taught and spread his practice amongst Tibet’s lay population.
The ban therefore came as a surprise not just to the Tibetan community but to the world at large. News of the Dalai Lama banning a religious practice appeared to be at odds with his image as a compassionate, kind and tolerant man.
Indeed, this news also appeared to contradict the ideals that the Dalai Lama himself had championed for the last five decades – the causes of political freedom and democracy, and the freedoms of religious worship and expression.
Since 2007, DorjeShugden.com has been dedicated to creating awareness about this unfair, illegal ban. We would like to share with you the response we have received on some of our most recently published articles. Whilst alienation of religious rights can still occur in this day and age, with the power of the Internet and new media, the response to our work shows that the truth cannot stay hidden for long.
We at DorjeShugden.com and hundreds of thousands of other practitioners will continue in a peaceful and respectful manner to bring awareness to this unjust ban until it is no more. All should have the freedom and choice to practice any religion without ostracism and religious leaders stopping this freedom of worship in this day and age.

Fantastic work from ds.com! I do not see any other ds groups that produce this much results or push so much for the ban to be released. I hope more people will join your cause and help put an end to this unnecessary ban.
