I love the part of this video where Prime Minister Samdhong says Shugden practitioners are terrorists sponsored by the Chinese...and the reporter says: Shugden practitioners have never been investigated for terrorism...Samdhong is such a liar. The whole Tibetan Government in Exile is full of lying monks.

Well accourding to your statement then the Dalai Lama worshipped Satan for 40 years before he happened to change his mind. Sorry, it doesn't add up. This is a mainstream practice that has been around hundreds of years, and was practiced by many of the great Gelugpa Masters. These include ALL of the Dalai Lama's teachers by the way... Trijand Dorjechage, Ling Rinpoche and many others.

The CIA through its funding of the Dalai Lama and his Tibetan movement is utilizing certain elements of the Buddhist world in one aspect of psychological warfare against China. The Tibetan exiles and their western hypocrite followers are nothing more than useful fools!

So much for democracy and freedom. To say that Dalai Lama always tell the truth and others are not is just incredible and pathetic. What a fool statement. It is like US that preaching freedom and demacracy to other countries without mutual respect and understanding to the culture and tradition but itself violate human rights all the time but downplay it...

I love how the first shopkeeper claimed, "I am not the kind of person who will just blindly believe someone" before following it up with, "Here the Dalai Lama is always the truth." Hypocrisy much?

@harrynephew : this is known as "irresponsible reporting"?

[leedhi]

With so much effort to eliminate the practice of Dorje Shugden (DS), his practice has only prospered. With the turn of events last year: 1) opening of Shar Ganden Monastery, 2) HH Gaden Trisur Rinpoche's proclamation of DS practice by moving to Shar Ganden and 3) the court case, I believe that DS will further flourish. I rejoice&am very grateful to the people who stood for DS for the benefit of all sentient beings so that we have the good fortune to have DS in our lives in the future!

is unfair to post such a video which doesn't explain the entire full story. you have to really listen to both sides of the story before making an assumption even.

Where is the compassion? It is horribly sad that HH is put through this.
