The Dalai Lama is incapable of giving a talk on Buddhism without mentioning
China. He has spent so long teaching politics instead of Buddhism & mixing
Buddhism with western science the quality of his explanation of Buddhism is
much lower that the masters of Gelugpa living in the exiled community. Yet
he doesn’t let them teach because he wants all the media attention, fame &
focus on him. And no Im not pro China Im pro Buddhism & all the exiled
Tibetan monks he has persecuted for the last 30 years. They built
monasteries in India & the Dalai Lama destroyed these monks lives by trying
to force modern science on them & banning traditional practices. Hes
ostracised everyone who was respected as his equal in his hunger for
power…belittling many great Tibetan masters & Gurus- hes destroyed the
power of Tibetan Buddhism. Now all that is left is his flimsy talks mixed
with poltics

Charles W says:

Don’t know what Muslim told his holiness Dalai Lama that ” Serious
practitioner of Islam create bloodshed is no longer serious Islam
practitioner.” In that case, Mohammad is not a serious Islam practitioner.

to know this…

Lesly Weiner says:

The Dalai Lama has ignored requests for peaceful dialogue from those whose
practice he has banned for 18 years!! He won’t even talk to them. 

4444seagull says:

He’s a showman. From the cap trick onwards it’s an act. His words don’t
come from his heart. It’s all shallow platitudes.

Jetsun Dolma says:

The Buddha showed the path to liberation and empowered people under gods
and priests to the reality that each of us are the master of our own
destiny.

An inescapable question is why so many Buddhist lands and people fell the
invasion and destruction of non-Buddhist emerging powers.

I do not know why Buddhism fell in India, Afghanistan or Sumatra.

In Tibet there was a great national and individual aspiration to follow the
Buddha’s path.

But there has been an element of stiffling piety of priestly religioustiy
by the priestly class: Sangha has been understood to mean Buddhist monks
but also the Community of the Presence of Virtue.

For many decades the Dalai Lama has tried to revive the notion that the
Sangha must be committed to the Presence of Virtue–that while monks
deserve all respects they must also serve their community.

Tashi Rapten says:

I am a Tibetan and practice Tibetan Buddhist. I feel my self extremely
lucky to have HH the Dalai Lama as our leader. He is the true manifestation
of Buddha in modern time. Long Life Your Holiness. We all love you and
admire you from the bottom of our heart !!!!

fucme holyshit says:

Julie Kelly says:

Lesly I have to say I support Kalsang on this matter and I believe you are
a little misguided on the Shugden issue. His Holiness and all committed
Buddhists welcome freedom of thought speech and in general free will. His
Holiness has only highlighted the seperatism that exists in the Dorjee
Shugden group of Buddhists. The 4 schools of Buddhists Kagyu Sakya Gelug &
Nyingma all embrace each other and although there are subtle differences in
the way they practice, there is no worship of one particular deity or God
because all are inreconnected. The Dorjee Shugden supporters have moved
away from this and so they cannot be accepted in the traditional Tibetan
way. His Holiness has made clear that he does not advocate for Shugden
practice but the Shugden supporters have murdered people in revenge so we
have to look at this on a more balanced perspective.

I am sure these people under me who criticise His Holliness are in real
life bad people who does bad things in their entire life and i just pity n
feel sad for these people who misuse their own life . MAY GOD BLESS THESE
TO ATTAIN A SENSIBLE MIND.

Paul Daly says:

“The great master Pabongka was in the first half of the twentieth century
the pivotal or key lineage holder of the Oral Geden Tradition. Many other
teachers before him mastered certain aspects of the tradition’s teachings,
but it was Pabongka Rinpoche’s particular merit to locate and find all
these partial transmissions, to learn and realize them, and bring them
together once again to pass them on through a single person. In his
lifetime there was hardly a significant figure of the Geden tradition who
had not been Pabongka Rinpoche’s disciple. Kyabje Trijang Rinpoche was the
one capable of receiving and passing on the entirety of the Oral Geden
Tradition once again. The Dorje Shugden practice is an integral part of
that tradition.”

Ramon Carballo says:

THE VOICE OF THE DALAI LAMA
If I had to find some fictional character to illustrate what the word
tyranny means. I would choose “Saruman the White”. Tolkien describes very
precisely what kind of motivation lies behind this word.
Saruman is the chief of a saga of wizards in the novel. A priori, he is a
positive character. Then later on he is tempted by the lust of power. In
the novel we are told that first he studied the arts of the enemy to fight
them, but eventually gave in to those same arts. Saruman is tempted by the
ring of power, which can subdue the whole “Middle-earth”. Saruman wants all
the power for himself and from that very moment begins the corruption of
his mind. First, by betraying his own kind, remember when Gandalf visits
him Saruman tempts him with the possibility to help him to get the ring of
power and dominate in this way “Middle-earth”. Gandalf refuses of course
and then Saruman make him his prisoner. After that Saruman mobilizes all
his forces to get the ring of power. In order, to achieve this he lies,
cheats, and manipulates his own people as a real tyrant. It is important to
remember that he is a being with powers and uses them to achieve his own
distorted purposes. You only need to read the chapter “The voice of
Saruman” to realize how he is able to manipulate and confuse people only
with the friendly and seductive tone of his speech. Recall that in this
chapter Saruman has already been defeated and cornered in his tower, but
still he has the power of his voice that like the song of the sirens may
tempt the unwary sailor. Luckily there is Gandalf to dismount all his lies.
Tolkien makes an excellent analysis of this character in this chapter.It
is so good that one fear that Saruman will convince everyone of his
goodness. It requires all the skill and integrity of Gandalf to defeat him.
This is a magnificent work to analyse power and its manipulations, how
power changes the mind and the dangers of being tempted by power.
Unfortunately, it is not very difficult to find in this world examples that
fit perfectly with Tolkien’s descriptions of Saruman. I think that the most
remarkable is that of the Dalai Lama as a symbol of Buddhism worldwide,
Nobel peace prize, supported by Hollywood and the media, as well as being
the representative in this world of the words tolerance, compassion and
goodness, actually he has deceive the whole world. The Dalai Lama voice
resembles that of Saruman. His words in the west are cordial and tolerant
but what really lies behind his seductive voice is the word tyranny.
Tyranny towards his own people as religious discrimination (chasing
mercilessly Dorje Shugden practitioners)
Since the Dalai Lama arrived to India his real motivation has been to
destroy the four traditions of Tibetan Buddhism, thus creating a new
tradition of which he would be the head. Then he would be the absolute
leader of his people, political, material and spiritual. Is not this a
description of absolutism?
Finally, I would only make a recommendation to all those under the
influence of the Dalai Lama, check what is behind the voice of “HH” the
Dalai Lama because his music although seductive resembles that of its
counterpart in fiction.

Religious Theology is a mind Trip.

Kelsang Deden says:

Empty words of tolerance, a travesty and tragedy that the Dalai Lama
doesn’t act according to his own advice:
Tibetan leadership organizes violence against Shugden people

Craig Hicks says:

The only difference between The Dalai Lama and Yoda… is their appearance
and lack of a lightsaber.
