June 15, 2008: Ellen Fanning talks to Kelsang Lhachog who represents the Western Shugden Society, a Buddhist movement who oppose the Dalai Lama's ban on the beloved practice of Dorje Shugden.
joej2005 - Dorje Shugden is a Buddha, he is already free.
pathseeker9 - good point. He knew for so many years that the Fifth Dalai Lama initially didn't practise, and still HHDL continued to practise DS. Then suddenly he changes his mind, and uses the Fifth Dalai Lama as an example of an anti-DS lama? Doesn't make sense! Besides, the Fifth Dalai Lama eventually came to accept DS, even writing praises to him!
This is miraculous - well done to the media in Australia for their brave coverage of this issue - finally the facts are coming to light - may peace and harmony prevail within the worldwide Buddhist community.
Thanks for posting this good interview, hopfully people will take notice of the illegal policy the DL is taking in this matter. May he follow in the footsteps of the fifth DL, by humbly admitting his mistake.
@pathseeker9 it's important that practitioners know what happened and ask questions...afterall, this is how we were taught by Buddha.

I agree. I think people should QUESTION why the Dalai Lama did what he did.
It cannot be that suddenly he realise the practice is wrong after so many years.
