A Lessening of Afflictive Emotions
My experience with Dorje Shugden consists mainly of a lessening of afflictive emotions. I have been able to let go of my desire for material possessions, and other worldly concerns. I have become more peaceful and happy, and less critical of others. My relationships with family members and colleagues have improved. You can say that…
A Critical State
Dorje Shugden has helped me tremendously in my career. For many months, my company didn’t have any income. When the funds went down to having enough for only one more month, I started to panic. I told my team of the critical state we were in. All of us had to go out to raise…
The Greatest Blessing of All
My experience with Dharmapala Dorje Shugden probably happened a long time ago before I was even aware of him. It was a time when I felt like my whole world was crumbling. Everything I did seemed to cause more problems and life was beginning to seem pointless. The job I had then was heading nowhere…
How A “Bad” Situation Becomes A Blessing
I like to have fun, go clubbing and live luxuriously. I always used to think that I was still young and still had lots of time to have fun and catch up on whatever I needed to do “later”. When I first encountered the Protector, I prayed only for wealth and fame, hoping that I…
Have Faith, Trust
When I first received Dorje Shugden’s practice, I was also going through a very difficult time in my marriage and was feeling very heartbroken. What is in my heart? My Lama had advised me to think deeply and decide how I wanted to live my life in future. He told me to have faith and…
Making My Life Meaningful
My story with Dorje Shugden started when I was a student facing one of the biggest university entrance exams. I was very nervous in the exam hall and couldn’t breathe for some time. Right then, I remembered my Lama’s advice to relax and focus my mind on Dorje Shugden. Back then, I had not been…
My Dear Life!
Almost every situation I have experienced is related to the blessing and workings of Dorje Shugden. Be it mine or my family members’ difficulties, obstacles were removed, minimised or changed for the better by propitiating Dorje Shugden. For instance, after my daughter graduated from university, she could not find a suitable job. She was given…
Being Present
I know this may not be a story of grand miracles but after practising Dorje Shugden, I feel an empowering sense of clarity and calmness. With this, my mind becomes much more stable and I am not as susceptible to mood swings and emotional ‘roller coaster rides’. I truly value this as it is something…
A New Lease of Life
The first time I was introduced to Lord Dorje Shugden was around 2002. My Lama’s assistant spoke to my wife and me of a secret Dharma Protector. She explained that this Protector is powerful and very swift in assisting those in need. At the time, we were into the fourth month of a retreat that…
Finding Strength In Difficult Times
I was introduced to Dorje Shugden’s practice a few years ago when our Lama gathered a few students to start doing pujas. We would meet monthly to do the pujas and from there, the group grew in strength to almost four times the size it used to be. My ageing mum and aunt live with…
Blessings for All Beings
One day, my friend called me and told me that there were spirit disturbances in his house. Almost all members of the family saw this spirit who would appear as a young boy. This spirit would always disturb my friend’s 7-year-old daughter and even try to push her down the stairs. My friend was very…
Dissipating Anger
It was another late night and I went to bed exhausted as usual. Tonight though was a little different because my cousin had done something to really anger me. I forget now what it was but I was angry… very, VERY angry. I could feel myself burning from inside out, and it was like no…
An Unexpected Path
Unlike asking a friend for a favour and physically seeing him/her follow it through, it’s hard to know the exact moments where Dorje Shugden played a major role in the outcome of a situation. I feel like I’ve gone through life pretty smoothly and perhaps that itself could be how he has helped: removing major…
Rely on the Protector
Relying on a Dharma Protector to clear the obstacles to our Dharma practice is what we are taught, but it is so rarely practiced. We choose to rely on our Dharma Protector to clear obstacles to the things we think we want, not what our Dharma Protector knows we need. Back in 2004, I had…
All We Have to Do is Believe
I am sure there have been countless incidents when the Protector Dorje Shugden has helped me without me even knowing. The fact that I’m still on this path is, I’m sure, by his blessings and protection – I quite fickle by nature and I think, given any other situation, I would have left when the…
Keeping A Roof Over My Head
I was in danger of losing my home. Tenancy agreements can be tricky things; they are valid based on certain conditions, and invalid based on others. And in my case, my tenancy agreement appeared to be invalid. Let me explain – I was facing a nasty landlord who, one year into a five-year contract, wanted…
Achieving Peace of Mind
I have directly experienced the benefits of practicing Dorje Shugden through attending regular pujas with my Dharma community as well as by chanting his mantra. Firstly, by practicing Dorje Shugden, I find inner peace. I have become more patient and obtained a much higher level of tolerance. The practice has also helped me to better…
Keeping Him Close to You
I was introduced to Lord Dorje Shugden’s practice by my Lama’s assistant in early 2002. She called us to her office one day, gave us five sheets of Dorje Shugden’s prayers and advised us to do his prayers, mantra and serkyem offerings everyday. She explained that he is a Dharma Protector, and told us that…
Turning Point
Let me first start by saying that I am not just a newbie to Dorje Shugden’s practice; I am also new to Protector practice in general, to Dharma and to spiritual practice of any form. I have gone through life very much like any other person: enjoying my life and chugging along thinking that all…
Bringing Grandma Home
I had been introduced to Dorje Shugden for quite some time already but all this while, I had never believed in Buddhism so even though I was given the Protector’s mantra I did not do my practice seriously. I only chanted the mantra when I remembered or when I needed help. That is, until one…
Seeing Things Change
Hello, I came to know Dorje Shugden in 2007. I was not seriously doing the practice until when I was going through my divorce. That was when i saw his true power. I was depressed for many years as my ex husband had been given me a lot of mentally abused and violent. I was…
A Newborn with a New Outlook

My Only Friend
Hello, The great thing about secular law is that it is written by men so it can always be rewritten or amended. The secular law, unlike karma, is flexible according to the will of the heart. In my case, I have been the beneficiary of two very kind hearts, in the judge and my protector….
The Basis for a Free Independent Tibet
Dear sir or madam, RE: The basis for a free independent Tibet I have been reading online some information that has greatly troubled me. It is regarding the formation of the Chushi Gangdruk. I recently learned from a reliable source that the group was formed at the insistence of Dorje Shugden, via the Panglung Oracle….
Having the Most Fulfilling Life
Hi, Personally, if you asked me to pray, I wouldn’t because all my life, everything I prayed for never came true. Maybe it was the essence of the prayers; it was always about things that could only benefit me. Thus without my prayers being fulfilled all this while, I lost hope. I thought maybe prayers…
Son, Father, Dharma Practitioner
To whom it concerns: RE: Son, Father, Dharma Practitioner I grew in a family whereby my parents were constantly at each other’s throats. My dad was a kind of a philanderer, and that brought a lot of disharmony at home. My mum even had her own affair to sort of even up the odds. It…
A Safe Haven
Dear Sir or Madam: We go through so much hell, finding and maintaining our relationships. I went through a divorce several years back. He was my first true love or so it seemed. One day I caught him cheating on me and I just kind of spiraled down. I turned to drinking and in my…

Dogs are Much Smarter Than Humans!
I’ve not been practising Dorje Shugden for very long but since I’ve been reciting his mantra, a great many wonderful things have happened. I must tell you of this one incident involving my schnauzer Frodo. He’s the beloved of my beloved and means more to me than my family- I love him much more than…
A Believer
Dear sir, Dorje Shugden is a Dharma protector who has helped me in my time of need. I’d like to share my story with you and the rest of the world. I have been a believer of the protector for a very long time and my whole family practices it. It happened one night when…
Good Luck Formula
Friday, 2 December 2011 Dear sir or madam: I stumbled upon the practice of Dorje Shugden over the Internet when I was looking for some kind of good luck formula some 5 years ago. I read many books about motivation, get rich formulas and spirituality. I guess deep down I just wanted happiness but were…
On the Verge of Giving up
Dear Sir/Madam: My name is Cedric Woon, living in Melbourne Australia. The reason I am writing in is that I have a story to share that happened to me years ago. As I come across this incredible moment in my life that still remains mystery until today. Back in 2004, my mum was suffered from…
Real Buddha
To whom it may concern, I am a businessman and my job requires me to travel. Most of the time I’ll stay in small-town hotels. It’s usually in these hotels, I’ll experience spirit disturbances. Some of these disturbances can be as serious as a knocking on my door on with nobody outside, and hearing creepy…

The Meaning of Guru Devotion
Tashi delek, I’m going to try and keep this short – I just wanted to thank you and your government for banning Dorje Shugden. I know it sounds weird but because your government made such a big deal out of the whole thing, it pushed me to contemplate on my dharma practice and the meaning…
