Question asked by Harold Musetescu
Happy New Year to you, Tsem Tulku and to all the Kecharians.
In my previous question I asked if I could have Dorje Shugden as my Yidam. I had asked this twice previous under the name Harold. All the answers were NO ("…Therefore as it currently stands Dorje Shugden cannot be practiced as a Yidam"). Now your most recent answer is YES "…he (Dorje Shugden) can be relied upon as a Yidam".
Since I can now have Dorje Shugden as my Yidam can you tell me if there is an "initiation, text, sadhana and commentary". If there is not one at this time I would suggest the following.
On dorjeshugden.com under the story line title of "Dharma Demystified: Dorje Shugden as a Yidam" it states in the last paragraph "What remains now is for a sincere practitioner to make the request to a qualified lama – a request that will benefit the world once it comes to fruition.".
In this article it also states "but one can meditate upon Dorje Shugden as a Yidam as well if a lama compose the necessary text….for Dorje Shugden to be regarded as a Yidam".
Finally it states " The previous Kyabeje Pabongka Rinpoche …Since the other great sadhanas were composed by attained lamas of the past, therefore an attained lama like Pabongka Rinpoche or Trijang Rinpoche could also compose the initiation text, sadhana and commentary on how to meditate on Dorje Shugden as a Yidam. Interestingly, Dorje Shugden would be the first Yidam to be a worldly form".
I would like you now formally request you Pastor to ask H.E. Tsem Tulku to request on my behalf either Pabonka Rinpoche or Trijang Rinpoche to compose the initiation text, sadhana and commentary on how to meditate on Dorje Shugden as a Yidam.
I request this for all the followers of Dorje Shugden around the world. To now have Dorje Shugden as our Yidam and not just a Dharma Protector would be of the greatest benefit for all of us and the world.
