Dalai Lamas Lies being published in Korean language only - English translation here. English translation of webpage from Tibet House Korea posted Nov 7th 2014 Tibet House, 1F, 810 Madudong, Ilsan-gu, Goyang City, Gyeong ki-do, South Korea. Shugden is not traditional Tibetan Buddhism. It does not belong to any of the four schools, Gelug, Sakya, Nyingma or Kagyu. Shugden is harmful. The heads of each of the four schools got together and decided to disconnect from Shugden. It is pretending to be Tibetan Buddhism but it is not. According to the 5th Dalai Lama: “Dragpa Gyaltsen was reborn as a bad spirit and he harms Dharma and sentient beings. Don’t be friends with him and get rid of him.” Three points: 1 The CAUSE of Shugden is bad energy. 2 The NATURE of Shugden is an evil spirit 3 The EFFECT of Shugden is to harm Dharma and sentient beings. Dragpa Gyaltsen said himself that he is a protector deity for Je Tsongkhapa and helps people to get wealth and to get enlightened very quickly, but this is a false story. Because when When Je Tsongkhapa passed away he turned his bowl upside down indicating his disciples should not get wealthy. If Shudgen is a special protector and helps people to get enlightened quickly, then Buddha Shakyamuni would have predicted his coming. The History of Shudgen This problem dates back to the time of the 5th Dalai Lama. Shudgen was born from a loyal family in 1619 and was elected as a candidate of 5th Dalai Lama but other person was selected so with his family’s he was recognized as incarnation of Panchen Sonam Dragpa and had caused conflict with 5th Dalai Lama. 5th Dalai Lama regarded him as an evil spirit. Before Je Tsongkhapa people practiced Shudgen in Gelug tradition and in 17th century including Sakya a few monks practiced according to written books. But they thought he was an evil spirit and great monks regarded him just as a servant. The 14th Dalai Lama had a connection with Dorje Shugden. But when he studied the 5th Dalai Lama he found evidence that Dorje Shugden was a very serious issue. After analysing many things the Dalai Lama decided not to pray to Dorje Shugden. On 13th June 1997 for the first time in public the Dalai Lama announced he would not worship Dorje Shugden any longer. Evidence Relationship between Dorje Shugden and China Dorje Shugden harms Dharma and the cause of Tibet. When the Chinese invaded Tibet the oracle of Dorje Shugden was in the army and said “If you go this way, we will be safe” But they were killed. You can ask Tibetan veterans – they are still alive now. When the Chinese invaded Tibet during the Cultural Revolution the vice-mayor of Chamdo visited one monk famous for his clairvoyance and told him he worshipped Dorje Shugden who told him he would protect Tibet from the Chinese army. One day the Chinese army invaded and the monk saw Dorje Shugden dressed in silk. The monk thought this was “auspicious energy” from Shugden and that he would fight against the Chinese army. Dorje Shugden walked between the Chinese army and him and changed into a young man and took the Chinese army into the Temple, to the debating yard and where the monks studied Dharma and then the Temple was attacked and destroyed. The monk couldn’t believe this and was so shocked that for 20yrs he couldn’t speak to anybody about this. Therefore Shugden harms Tibet and helps Communists. Current Tibet and Shugden On June 13th 1997 the Dalai Lama officially announced about the Dorje Shugden issue and said he is expecting violence, that he is ready for threats and violence. In northern India at the Buddhist School IBD the Principal Lobsang Gyatso made great effort to explain about the dangers of Shugden. Although he received many warnings he didn’t give up so he and his disciples were stabbed to death by Dorje Shugden practitioners in 1997. Until now Shugden has caused conflict with the Dalai Lama and the Gelug and has distorted facts by encouraging a split in the Gelug tradition. Now Dorje Shugden has become the illegitimate child of Tibetan Buddhism. Recently across America and Asia Doreje Shugden people disrespect the Dalai Lama. The Dalai Lama’s side is enforcing protection against Dorje Shugden protests in the USA and India. Dalai Lama says that you have a religious freedom to worship Shudgen but I am sure that you will get the consequence of this before you die. Problem 1 People who practice Dorje Shugden regard him as a Dharma protector and they believe he is more important than Buddha himself. So innocent people will get easily attracted to this and follow it. This is against Tibetan Buddhism. Problem 2 The Dalai Lama says we need harmony with all religions and he tries his best to learn from different paths regardless of their faith. Shugden practice is an obstacle to have harmony within Tibetan Buddhism Problem 3 According to history the Shugden spirit caused trouble between the 5th Dalai Lama and the Dalai Lama’s government. In the 17th century the previous 5th Dalai Lama perceived Dorje Shugden as an evil spirit who causes trouble for Tibetan welfare and for the Dalai Lama’s well-being. Especially the 13th Dalai Lama and other revered spiritual leaders complained about the practice. Dorje Shugden causes disharmony in Tibetan communities. What can we do about Dorje Shugden? According to the 3 reasons above the Dalai Lama says: “I have a responsibility to take care of Tibetans and I have to be against this destructive influence. As a Buddhist we have to act very carefully. As I personally know that this practice is so negative so I decided not to practice. To rely upon Shudgen is not real refuge so those who practice Shudgen don’t come to a public talk because we have disagreements with them.” If you go to India and see Tibetan exiles you can see with your own naked eyes that Shugden people have built their own Temples and that live with other Tibetans. If you want to leave the Tibetan community in India you need a Registration Card and Dorje Shugden people can also get these cards for the Tibetan exile government. If you want to go abroad we will issue a passport and there is no problem. We are not against religious freedom and there is no discrimination. What we want to say is that it doesn’t matter what religion you are – it’s up to you to choose any Deity. It’s up to you if you are happy with it. We have a duty to say to you that we believe it is an evil spirit and you will get a bad result. Whether you pay attention to this or not it’s up to you.
