Dorje Shugden: Our Personal Stories
Throughout the years that H.E. the 25th Tsem Rinpoche has been in Malaysia, countless Buddhists both local and around the world have entreated Rinpoche, and continue to, for all manner of guidance, assistance and urgent help. Some request advice to advance their spiritual practice, others have spirit disturbances creating chaos in their lives while yet others seek help to solve more mundane problems including familial, health and financial worries. For many such cases, Rinpoche calls upon his sworn Dharma Protector Dorje Shugden, through divination and other channels, to provide solutions and help those in need.
The following videos are just a handful of testimonies from the thousands who have benefitted from their practice of Dorje Shugden. They share first hand experiences of the compassion and power of this benevolent deity, and their thoughts on the on-going controversy against the practice of this enlightened Dharma Protector.
Through these videos, we hope that many more will gain faith in Dorje Shugden and we would like to thank our Lama, Tsem Rinpoche, for his courage, strength and guidance even in the face of much abuse and persecution – persecution that faces those who have chosen to keep their commitments to their respective Gurus to continue this practice. May our Lama live long and continue to spread the teachings of Lama Tsongkhapa in the ten directions.

Due to our karma, it’s important for us to engage in protector practice to support our spiritual journey. We will encounter numerous obstacles be it big or small but this obstacle will just manifest based on our karma to hinder us from pursuing our spiritual practice.

Dear friends,
Tibet has produced many powerful meditations, rituals and guidelines to help us gain spiritual protection, gain wisdom and higher states of consciousness. In general Tibet has produced many powerful methods for the growth of our spiritual evolution. Dorje Shugden is an angel, a saint, a powerful spiritual protector-warrior who originated 350 years ago when a highly awakened Tibetan Lama fulfilled his vows to become a special being to grant protection, wisdom, material needs, safety when travelling (normal and astral travel) and spiritual awakening. Both the Great 5th Dalai Lama and the current His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama composed short yet effective prayers to invoke upon the power and blessings of this special saint and protector. One can recite either one of the prayers that you feel suits you, anytime or even daily. When you feel a special need for help, you can recite either prayer anytime. When you are feeling down, afraid or just need a blessing, you can recite them. After reciting either invocation, it is good to chant the mantra of Dorje Shugden: Om Benza Wiki Bitana Soha.
You do not have to be a Buddhist or practitioner of any religion to invoke upon the blessings and protection of this special enlightened and awakened angel Dorje Shugden. He helps all without discrimination or bias as he is filled with compassion and love. Divinity has no boundaries, they help all who call upon them.
Enclosed are the prayers in English, Chinese and Tibetan.
May you be safe, protected and blessed.
Tsem Rinpoche

Divination (‘mo’) Text by Dorje Shugden
This is an important divination (‘mo’) text composed by Dorje Shugden himself. Dorje Shugden took trance of the Choyang Dulzin oracle lama, the senior oracle of Gaden Shartse Monastery, and instantly on the spot composed this text within two hours.
The divination text contains information on how to use dice to do divination for the future and is known to be highly accurate. When practitioners use this text, they will be in direct contact with Dorje Shugden to get answers to questions about the future. It is for those who have good samaya with Dorje Shugden and are free of the eight worldly dharmas to be of benefit to others in divining the future.

For the first time available, Dorje Shugden and his entourage of 32 asssistants of his mandala.
Dorje Shugden is a powerful protector deity who is also an emanation of Manjushri, a wisdom bestowing Buddha. Therefore, he has great ability to help us to progress further on the spiritual path. He does this by helping us to overcome obstacles and problems for the modern individual.
Due to his enlightened nature, Dorje Shugden is able to manifest 32 deities and within the same abode resides Setrap and Kache Marpo:-
1. 5 Dorje Shugden families or emanations. They consists of the following:-
– Dulzin Dorje Shugden, which performs activities to eliminate inner and outer obstacles.
– Shize, which performs activities to pacify all illnesses and disease.
– Gyenze, which performs activities to increase all desirable material and spiritual wealth.
– Wangze, which performs activities to control difficult people and circumstances.
– Trakze, which performs activities to wrathfully eliminate all insurmountable obstacles and life-threatening situations.
2. 9 Mothers. They represent protection of the five senses and developing control of the four elements. These are all attributes that signify their ability to assist tantric practitioners with their higher meditations.
3. 8 Guiding Monks. They represent the Eight Great Bodhisattvas (Avalokitesvara, Manjushri, Vajrapani, Samantabhadra, Maitreya, Kshitigarbha, Akashagarbha, Sarva-nivarana-viskambini) and they bring about the growth of the Dharma, through the Sangha, Dharma practitioners and Dharma establishments.
4. 10 Youthful & Wrathful Attendants. They represent the ten wrathful attendants to avert inner and outer obstacles. They are beings who are from Mongolia, China, Kashmir, India, Bengali, etc.
5. Setrap. He is a senior Dharma Protector from India and an emanation of Amitabha Buddha. He had enthroned Dorje Shugden as an authentic Dharma Protector. Therefore, he also resides within the same mandala of Dorje Shugden.
6. Kache Marpo. He is not an emanation of Dorje Shugden but he is still an enlightened Dharma Protector in his own right. He was originally known as Tsiu Marpo of Samye Monastery. However, he has placed himself under the service of Dorje Shugden as his chief minister, performing many activities in order to protect and benefit practitioners. Therefore, he stands guard at the main entrance of Dorje Shugden’s mandala. He often takes trance of qualified mediums to speak.
7. Namkar Barzin. He is the reincarnation of an old Mongolian monk and when he passed away in Phari area of Tibet, his spirit was placed as a powerful assistant of Dorje Shugden. He guards and protects buildings and great institutions especially those that benefit others. He rides on a mythical Gyaling animal that resembles a goat but with scales.
These sacred images are available on *Vajrasecrets. They are made of high quality alloy and are one of a kind. They are based on the lineage of His Holiness Panchen Rinpoche’s monastery, Tashilhunpo in Shigatse, Tibet. In fact, the iconography of these statues are based on detailed photographs taken by H. E. Tsem Rinpoche during a trip to Tashilhunpo’s protector chapel. These are based exactly as the 10th Panchen Lama’s personal collection.

His Holiness the 10th Panchen Lama
Tibetans commonly refer to His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama and His Holiness 10th Panchen Lama as the “sun and moon” of Tibetan Buddhism. They are the center of Tibetan Buddhist civilization, which draws to its sphere of influence millions of non-Tibetan practitioners. The Panchen Lama’s incarnation line began with the 16th abbot of Tashi Lhunpo Monastery, Lobsang Chokyi Gyeltsen (1570 – 1662). He was bestowed the title of Panchen Lama by His Holiness the 5th Dalai Lama after being declared as an emanation of Amitabha.
After being given the title, his three previous incarnations were posthumously also bestowed the title, making Lobsang Chokyi Gyeltsen the 4th Panchen Lama. He became a teacher to many Tibetans, Bhutanese and Mongolian religious figures, including His Holiness the 4th and 5th Dalai Lamas, and the 1st Jetsun Dampa of Mongolia. A prolific author, Chokyi Gyeltsen is credited with over a hundred compositions, including a number of commentaries and ritual texts that remain central in the Gelukpa tradition today. Along with his role as a teacher of the Dharma, the Panchen Lamas are usually responsible for the recognition of the rebirths of the Dalai Lamas, and vice versa.
The 10th Panchen Lama, Lobsang Trinley Lhundrub Chokyi Gyeltsen (19 February 1938 – 28 January 1989) continued both the spiritual and political roles of his predecessors. His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama, his contemporary, was even heard to say and echo the Panchen Lama’s own words that the Dalai Lama would safeguard Tibet from the outside while the Panchen Lama would safeguard Tibet from the inside, as he never left Tibet after the political troubles of 1959. He was truly loved by the Tibetans, all the way until his passing. When he taught, thousands of people would attend, not only from his own Gelug lineage, but masters and practitioners from all traditions of Tibetan Buddhism.
At his sprawling monastery of Tashi Lhunpo, he has a special chapel specifically dedicated to Dorje Shugden, where prayers and rituals are performed on a daily basis. In his great omniscience the Panchen Lama held Dorje Shugden as the principal Dharma protector of the monastery. He also personally propitiated Dorje Shugden among other Dharma protectors, and even wrote extensive prayers and rituals to Dorje Shugden. These rituals and prayers are contained within his ‘sung bum’ or collected works, which are provided here. As such a great lama, with an erudite and clear understanding of the Buddhist scriptures, a teacher to millions in both Tibet and China, from an established incarnation line and an emanation of the Buddha Amitabha, he could not be mistaken about his practice of Dorje Shugden.
His Holiness 10th Panchen Lama is known for his composition of commentaries and practice texts that are still in use by contemporary Buddhist practitioners both in Tibet and across the world. One of these is a powerful ritual composition propitiating the compassionate Dorje Shugden.
Upon the request by Acharya Lobsang Jangchub to compose a shorter version of the prayer (sadhana) for the exhortation of activities of Dorje Shugden, Panchen Lama immediately composed an abbreviate form of Dorje Shugden’s Kangsol. This text is entitled “Manjunatha’s (Tsongkapa) Lineage protector Dorje Shugden and five forms wrathful propitiations and confessional prayers and fulfilment of activities rites” or “Melodious sound of Accomplishment of the Four Activities” for short. Once the prayers were completed, he had signs and strong feelings that Dorje Shugden has been working hard to protect the Buddhadharma in general and the lineage of Lama Tsongkhapa specifically.
Mirroring the abilities of one of his earlier incarnations, Khedrub Je, a disciple of Lama Tsongkhapa and master of both sutra and tantra, the Panchen Lama used his compositional skill and poetic prowess to create a masterful sadhana. Worthy of note is a praise in which the first letter of each verse is a Tibetan vowel. Such compositions are rarely seen, and have historically only been used when propitiating senior Dharma protectors such as Palden Lhamo and Kalarupa.
The Panchen Lama also stated that while composing the Dorje Shugden sadhana (prayers) he was filled with a sense of happiness and bliss. He ends the composition with not only his official title but his ordination name, Tenzin Trinley Jigme Choje Wangchuk, endorsing the validity of his work. He composed the sadhana in his own Tashi Lhunpo monastery while in the Hall of Clear Light and Bliss.

“If the Dalai Lama, if His Holiness the Dalai Lama can be harmed by Dorje Shugden, then we might as well not practice Buddhism anymore. If His Holiness the Dalai Lama can have his life shortened by a so-called evil spirit, any evil spirit, then can he be Avalokiteshvara? So on one hand you say, we say, I say, everybody says, he is Avalokiteshvara; on the other hand you’re saying that he can be harmed by an evil spirit… Which one is it? Can he be harmed by an evil spirit or is he Avalokiteshvara? Do you think Avalokiteshvara, Manjushri, Vajrapani, Tara all take refuge in something else to protect themselves from Dorje Shugden? How illogical is that? How illogical of people to say His Holiness the Dalai Lama can be harmed by an evil spirit, any evil spirit or “Dorje Shugden” evil spirit. How is that possible?” – Tsem Tulku Rinpoche

Will the CTA (Tibetan govt in exile) and their supporters in East and West say voodoo is evil and cannot be practiced too? Will they advise against Voodoo and say its a demon’s practice and people who practice are bad too? Truth be told, no one has the right to say anything about anyone’s religion. Listen to what this man says in the short snagged clip because he speaks well and with the truth.

This excerpt of the Swiss Television documentary presented in 1988 is a painful reminder of the hypocrisy and the sad reality of the oppression, discrimination, and ostracisation of Dorje Shugden practitioners. For 20 years, Dorje Shugden practitioners have endured this and no one supported their fight as the Tibetan leadership in exile continues to undermine their effort by denying the existence of this ban, and silencing their voice by peer pressure, flooding the media and fooling the general public with accusations that Shugden practitioners are political tools supported by the Chinese government to create discord within the Tibetan community. Please listen to their plea and please share this video far and wide to end this injustice.

Faith and trust, in Dharmapala Dorje Shugden , believing in his great compassion, is what matters. These personal testimonies truly inspire us. Mrs Chuah’s and Su Mings’ testimonies resonate with me very deeply. The memories come flooding back of how Dorje Shugden intervened so powerfully and effectively even though he had been consulted over the critical situation which arose at the eleventh hour. How he wrought the miracle that saved a precious life and prevented the anguish and misery that would have resulted without his intervention – all these are still fresh in my mind.
Such miracles somehow strengthen the faith of all to whom these miracles happen, as their lives have been touched and affected very deeply by them. They also inspire others to place total reliance on Dorje Shugden as they know he will bless and protect them too all the way , lifetime after lifetime, to Enlightenment.
Ah! Yes, Dorje Shugden the most powerful Dharma Protector. There is so many wonderful things I can described about him. He was introduced to me by my Laymaster back here in Ipoh. That time I didn’t who he was. I remember my Laymaster told me ;
Laymaster : Hey Martin, I brought something back from Seremban, and is very powerful.
Me : Ok let’s see what you got…
So he ask me to go into his office and ask me to look at a giant picture which were hanging on the wall. The first look at the picture, I was stun and speechless. I actually fell in love with the Dharma Protector (*GOSH*). It was like love at first sight, just like how I fell in love with my wife for the first time (*LOLZ*). Then I went fanatic questioning him like a police to a criminal. I ask him where did he got the picture? He told me he went to a food court with my Senior (Dai Si Heng) for dinner, and there he saw just at the corner there is full of Dorje Shugden’s books, brouches and leaflet. Oh yes and the giant picture. Well I knew he sure go for the giant which he did. The these belongs to the owner of the food court. He told my Laymaster to go head with the giant picture cause he said this picture has been here for a long time, cause no one dare to take it because of the wrathful look of the protector. He quickly took it and put it inside his car (*Lolz*).
Then he told me he brought back some books too and without hesitation I dive right into it to know more about the protector. The more I read the more I love him. Then I did research on the web and which miraculously the protector led me to Kechara. Then from there I started my journey. The Dharma Protector really brought many good benefits for me and wife. It really do have miracle and protection which me and my wife hasn’t experience before. Unexplainable which leads me to introduced the Dharma Protector to everyone I know and met. So why banned it? Why certain people says that the Protector was a demon and is evil? What has the Protector done to deserve these kind of criticism? Just because their Gurus told them? It has been practice for centuries, passed down from one Guru to another. If the Protector really a demon and evil, then sure me and wife won’t get all these benefits, blessing and protection. But the most important was that, all these won’t stop me and wife from practicing and believing in the The Dharma Protector.
Thank you for sharing Martin, in the face of overwhelming evidence, not many people after experiencing the protective powers of dorje shugden can find fault with Dorje Shugden. May you have a long, fruitful and spiritual association with Dorje Shugden.
Thank you for sharing your personal testimonials and belief in protector practice of Dorje Shugden, which our Guru gave us in compassion. It is very obvious that we can only benefit from this powerful practice as Dorje Shugden helps us in many ways to keep us on the path of Dharma. An enlightened Buddha will never harm but instead seek to help us out of sufferings. Dorje Shugden arose out of compassion and Guru Devotion, being enlightened Dorje Shugden is able to know how best to help us and promised to guide us until we reach enlightenment’s gate. May everyone be blessed with the opportunity of Dorje Shugden’s practice and not have the karma to be swayed by misguided thoughts. Thank you Rinpoche for your kindness in caring for us through giving us the path out of sufferings.
Everyone has the stories about the powerful Dharma Protector Dorje Shugden.

Thank you Rinpoche for sharing these inspiring videos .May more and more people will get to know the powerful Dorje Shugden.
May the ban on Dorje Shugden be lifted soon , many of the practitioners has suffered for too long . May there be peace and harmonious environment for all.
Dorje Shugden arose as a dharma protector about 400 years ago out of great compassion to help all sentient beings. He is an emanation of Manjushri. Therefore, whoever has faith in Dorje Shugden can invoke on his blessings to develop wisdom, memory, understanding and clarity of mind that will bring beneficial to their practices.
Thank you Rinpoche for sharing these 15 inspiring videos of those have benefitted from their practice of Dorje Shugden, especially about the protection from Black Magic by Angel Ooi and how Dorje Shugden helped an Indonesian student, Valentina, in her financial and charity works.
Thank you for this article, sharing about very personal experiences. As an outsider, it is very inspiring to read and listen to stories like these. As Dato Colin Tan said, Dorje Shugden is a compassionate Buddha as he does not punish even though as humans, we are forgetful and careless in making offerings after having our wishes granted by Dorje Shugden.
As Datin Sharon Tong shared about how she and her husband as well as her in-laws form a stronger bond in their shared common practice of Dorje Shugden. A real family binder.
Whatever accusations that were thrown against this practice, the various practitioners here have experienced to the contrary. So, it is not fair to put a blanket blame on situations that have not favored detractors as they have to remember that they have their own karma to deal with as well. Negative karma needs to be purified and connections with Dorje Shugden made for Dorje Shugden to come to our aid.
Great message every Tibetan especially must read!
I still love and miss His Holiness the Dalai Lama. I am hoping he will unite all of us no matter what our religion is. I know he will. His Holiness has done so much good in the world. I’ve admired him since I was a very young boy and when I met him for the first time in 1979. He came to Howell, New Jersey where I grew up. It was magical to see him. I pray one day he will accept all Dorje Shugden practitioners as was his root guru was a Dorje Shugden practitioner and invite us into his presence again with love and acceptance. I pray for his long life and continued presence in this world. I never lost hope in His Holiness the Dalai Lama to accept all of us regardless of race, religion, sect and background once again.
I place my unworthy head to his feet, Humbly, Tsem Rinpoche https://www.tsemrinpoche.com
This is an interesting comment by Suzy on Rinpoche’s YouTube channels that indicates clearly that people have seen through the Tibetan leadership’s negative propaganda against Dorje Shugden. Suzy’s comment is honest and she acknowledged that she harbored negative thoughts about Dorje Shugden due to the Dalai Lama’s words. And yet she felt that the Dalai Lama was in fact using skillful means to propagate the Shugden practice. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vl-4lIwxph4&t=11s
Trode Khangsar Chapel in Lhasa, TibetOver 400 years ago a great and learned lama Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen was famed in Mongolia, Tibet, Nepal and China for being very saintly and compassionate. He resided in his residence (Zimkhang Gongma Ladrang) in Drepung Monastery. His root guru was H.H. the Omniscient 4th Panchen Lama and his close dharma brother was the 5th Dalai Lama.
The 5th Dalai Lama and Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen had a very close and dharmic relationship and often went to receive teachings together from the 4th Panchen Lama. They were close in age. They both became very learned and well known. During this time, the Dalai Lama was enthroned as a Dharma King of Tibet. But more people went to see Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen for teachings, initiations and divinations. This made the attendants of the 5th Dalai Lama feel threatened that Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen’s fame might usurp the power of the 5th Dalai Lama. So they had a khata forced down his throat. At that moment, Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen dissolved his psychic winds and generated the wish to be a great guardian of Buddha and Tsongkapa’s teachings. As his consciousness dissolved, he entered ‘bardo’ as a dharma protector of the highest order (jikten depey sungma). Many signs were seen throughout Lhasa at this time and the earth was said to have shaken in Lhasa. This event was already predicted to Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen’s previous incarnation when he was one of the 8 main disciples of Lord Tsongkapa the Supreme Master and he served Tsongkapa directly by building Gaden Monastery.
When the 5th Dalai Lama heard what his scheming and power-hungry attendants had done, he was very distressed. He was very sorry Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen was murdered and dishonored as he was a great dharma master. The 5th Dalai Lama composed an apology to Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen. In Lhasa, tens of thousands gathered for the cremation of Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen’s holy body. During the cremation, the 5th Dalai Lama’s apology was read out at which flames spontaneously arose from the body of Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen commencing the cremation. From the body, during cremation, a powerful whirlwind of smoke tunneled into the sky for all to see as this was an indication Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen’s consciousness has arisen as the Dharma Protector Dorje Shugden. The Dharma Protector Setrap immediately recognized this new protector Dorje Shugden and ‘enthroned’ him as a powerful Dharma Protector in the realm of the Buddhas. From this, Setrap and Dorje Shugden are closely connected and very close working hand in hand always. After the cremation, the great 5th Dalai Lama built a Dorje Shugden chapel on the spot the cremation took place and named it Trode Khangsar. The 5th Dalai Lama commissioned the statue of Dorje Shugden in this chapel and had monks installed in the chapel to do continuous propitiations to Dorje Shugden. Trode Khangsar Chapel was a commemoration to Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen who was wronged and also a celebration of his consciousness arising as the World Peace Peace Protector Dorje Shugden.
This Trode Khangsar Chapel still exists now in Lhasa where many make pilgrimages there. It is in good condition and was recently renovated. It is over 400 years old and a testimony to the respect the Great 5th Dalai Lama had to Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen who arose as Dorje Shugden.
I have visited this holy chapel in Lhasa years back. I’ve never heard of it till I was in Lhasa and by chance, I was told about it which I was happy to visit. I could not find the place but strangely a bunch of pilgrims from Amdo told me they would show me how to get there in Lhasa.
This short video is a short clip of this holy Trode Khangsar Chapel in Lhasa today commemorating Dorje Shugden, built by the great 5th Dalai Lama. The great 5th Dalai Lama even composed a prayer to Dorje Shugden which is still available today and we can recite to invoke the blessings, protection, and assistance of World Peace Protector Dorje Shugden.

The 5th Dalai Lama’s Prayer to Dorje ShugdenHUM
Though unmoving from the sphere of primordial spontaneity,
With wrathful turbulent power, swifter than lightning,
Endowed with heroic courage to judge good and bad,
I invite you with faith, please come to this place!
Robes of a monk, crown adorned with rhinoceros leather hat,
Right hand holds ornate club, left holds a human heart,
Riding various mounts such as nagas and garudas,
Who subdues the mamos of the charnel grounds, praise to you!
Samaya substances, offerings and torma, outer, inner and secret,
Favourite visual offerings and various objects are arranged.
Although, previously, my wishes were a bit dense,
Do not stop your powerful apparitions, I reveal and confess!
Now respectfully praising with body, speech, and mind,
For us, the masters, disciples, benefactors and entourages,
Provide the good and avert the bad!
Bring increase like the waxing moon in spiritual and temporal realms!
Moreover, swiftly accomplishing all wishes,
According to our prayers, bestow the supreme effortlessly!
And like the jewel that bestows all wishes,
Always protect us with the Three Jewels!

I rejoice for these people whose lives have been touched and blessed by Lord Dorje Shugden.The testimonies and stories here are wonderful and a good reminder of what eventually the Dharma Protector can provide to us.
There so many stories that highlighted how beneficial the Dorje Shudgen practice is and how many people are benefitted even someone who recites the Dorje Shudgen for a short time. I personally got captivated with Datuk May Phng sharing her experience on Dorje Shugden showing signs of swaying her thangka and the knocking sound on her wooden altar everytime Datuk May recites DS mantra. Mum and I watched it many times and we find it truly amazing!
Thank you very much Rinpoche and everyone who are involved in producing and sharing these interesting videos. _/\_
Thank you everyone for sharing your experience. It clearly shows that Dorje Shugden is a very beneficial practise. Rejoice for all of you.
Dorje Shugden is an enlightened Dharma Protector. Many high lamas have been practising it more than 400 years ago. I hope the ban on Shugden will be lifted soon so more people can be benefited from this practise.
The testimonies and stories here are wonderful and a good reminder of what eventually the Dharma Protector can provide to us..besides the outer miracles and resources for living etc the very same thing the Holy Lama has been emphasizing since he started teaching Dharma..the ability to have mind transformation after hearing and applying the Dharma.. In that eventually our mind is at peace, anger dissolved and we are on our journey to enlightenment.
Thus to simply say Dorje Shugden is a demon/ghost etc is not logical at all as we can see from the Video the sharing from all these people is real and natural. Unfortunately I find it is some other Lamas’ supporters who are behaving rudely, with no sense of responsibilities when acting out violently..I think these irresponsible people are the real demons and the world is ready to judge the truth soon.
A big thank you to the team in getting these videos out. may it encourage more citizens of the world to also collate and post such videos and may the ban be lifted so all can pray worship and meditate in peace. Om Benza Wiki Bitana Soha
There is so many stories that highlight how beneficial the Dorje Shudgen practice is and how many people are benefitted even someone who recites the Dorje Shudgen for a short time. In our time and age it is much easier to bring to light the benefits felt by the practitioners. And this is happening during the degenerate age. Imagine how many people were benefitted when beings had more merits in the past.
In the past few hundred years, many High Lamas and monasteries have relied on Dorje Shugden. Although Dorje Shugden is mainly propitiated in the Gelugpa lineage, liturgies and religious texts for presenting offerings to Dorje Shugden were available in the Sakya, and Drugpa Kagyu Traditions of Tibetan Buddhism as well. Some areas of Tibet also practiced Dorje Shugden strongly.
There are myriad of Dorje Shugden practitioners around the world. They come from different socioeconomic status, ethnic, and age group. One thing that they all have in common is that their faith in Dorje Shugden is unshakenin the face of the ban instituted by the Central Tibetan Administration (CTA), this is truly admirable Haven’t people wonder why Dorje Shugden practitioners are firm in their practice while facing discrimination, and some even suffered violent attacks?
The swiftness of Dorje Shugden’s assistance as a Dharmapala has in one way or another helped these practitioner or their loved ones overcome certain obstacles in life or at time of difficulties, this is what I have read/ heard over and over again.
The beauty of this practice is that one does’t need to be a practitioner, or to have received initiation or sogtae (life entrustment) to receive the help of his Dharmapala or to benefit from his practice.
Here are some of the people who have received benefits from rely on Dorje Shugden, and I rejoice that they are sharing their experiences with many. Please share these videos with others, because many more out there who are hopeless, who are stucked, who are depressed, who are suicidal and who are desperate; perhaps Dorje Shugden can help them, just like how Dorje Shugden has helped those who spoke in the videos.
Gratitude to everyone who stood up to share their personal stories with Protector Dorje Shugden. Om Benza Wiki Bitana Soha.
This also makes me feel the same way about feeling good about the practice when someone who practices simply knows that Dorje Shugden is Manjushriye, how can we doubt him?
May i know where can I get to know about this religion in Malacca ? I am very intrested in it .
I rejoice for these people whose lives have been touched and blessed by Lord Dorje Shugden. Their testimonies provide evidence that Dorje Shugden is an enlightened deity and this practice will result in the improvement of one’s life and the lives of loved ones. Obstacles are removed, conditions improve, and one is able to engage in Dharma work to benefit others. Thank you for the videos.
These are just some of the many video testimonials on how great believing in our Guru and the Protector.
Those people above came from all walks of life and met Rinpoche at different times of their lives, yet the blessings and protection our Dharma Protector Lord Dorje Shugden gave were always constant. Regardless of age, gender and society standing, Protector protects us and guides us.
Stop the discrimination and watch properly how all of us are blessed and protected by the love of our Guru and Protector. The videos are just small parts of what Lord Dorje Shugden can do.
Thank you Admin, for posting those videos.
