Dalai Lama's violent crack down on rival Buddhists in India

Back


Documentary: In the late 1990s, the Dalai Lama led a crackdown on the Dorje Shugden, accusing its worshippers of being an 'evil cult'. Dorje Shugden, an enlighted protection deity, has been worshipped in Tibet for thousands of years without conflict. Among the worshippers of the Dorje Shugden are the late teachers of the Dalai Lama himself. Initially, refugees tried to flee to Tibet, but were refused at the Chinese border for their association with the Dalai Lama. Some have returned to India, practicing their religion in secret, while others have moved to Western Europe and North America. This persecution has become progressively more virulent, and in January 2008, the Dalai Lama issued a new proclamation requiring all Tibetans to sign a declaration forsaking the practice forever and promising not to associate in any way -- spiritually, financially, socially or materially -- with anyone who does not sign. http://www.westernshugdensociety.org/
