The Dalai Lama has created so much suffering with this idea. This is yet more proof that religions divide.

7:21 because he is not buddha or a god at all! he is just a human being who has caused problems to everybody!

It so sad for Tibet everywhere.

[AwakeToTheMystery]

It is a human being's "BIRTHRIGHT" to worship whomsoever they feel moved to.

The Dalai Lama's DICTATORSHIP herein is utterly disgusting and profoundly hypocritical in the light of what he proclaims to religiously stand for. I have lost all respect accordingly.

And no, I am not a Shugden practitioner, I am an ordained INTERFAITH minister.

I call on everyone to please email the Dalai Lama to ask him to immediately stop this harmful ban. You've all seen the video, you've seen the open public discrimination against Dorje Shugden practitioners... The Dalai Lama only needs to say the word and this could all stop tomorrow.

Amazing he doesn't do this. This winner of the Nobel Peace Prize does not seemed concerned at all about the intense suffering and persecution going on right under his nose.

Please let him know what you think.

they blame CHINA for everything bad that happens yet in their own society they discriminate their own people and intimidate them because they follow anothe diety. where is the religious freedom and tolerance that is spoken always in his speech to the west? You can understand enemies and outsiders doing you wrong, but your own family, community doing you harm..is just terrible and tragic.

[wisdombeing]

on top of that, if he is a spirit that can't be destroyed, and is so threatening to HH Dalai Lama and TGIE, wouldn't DS have killed HHDL by now? HHDL says DS is a threat to his life... and DS cannot be subdued so... how come nothing negative has happened...

[MsHandgun]

Dalai lama is compassion to paymaster Christians,not to the  poor Buddhist Tibetans.

[TheDharmaKnight]

Except for the ban on Dorje Shugden, not a single Tibetan god or demon has been discriminated against or abolished, and no other practitioner of any other Tibetan god or demon has been persecuted. Dalai Lama doesn't even speak out against any other religion, cult, occult. Why Dorje Shugden?!

[TheRedNiece]

wangchub - that's right! I like what you're saying!

There are many records of how DS was burned and destroyed in rituals, fire pujas etc. So (1) if he was destroyed, what is there to be so scared of now and (2) if he wasn't destroyed, then we must think, WHY wasn't he destroyed? It is because he's an enlightened being who CAN'T be destroyed?
