		<description><![CDATA[&quot;How so?&quot;

http://dissidentvoice.org/2012/06/dalai-lama-cult-postmodern-neo-feudalism-and-the-decline-of-the-west/

“Although the Dalai Lama claims that Dorje Shugden is a demon and that the cult is a deviation, the worship of the Dorje Shugden is widespread throughout traditional Tibetan Buddhism. Since the Dalai Lama’s decision to outlaw this practice, thousands of monks have been excluded from visiting temples. In fact, the Dalai Lama’s dictatorial campaign against the Dorje Shugden religion threatens to exclude over 4 million Tibetans from practicing their religion.

According to the Dalai Lama, the Dorje Shugden are traitors to the cause of Tibetan independence. Such is the Tibetan leader’s “tolerance”. The Dalai Lama’s violations of human rights are rarely, if ever, mentioned among the cacophony of hysterical “free Tibet” sloganeering in the mass media.

Death threats and the ostracism of whole families who practice this traditional form of Buddhism are common in Dharamsala. Thousands of people have had to flee Dharamsala due to the “tolerant” Dalai Lama’s commands. Many people have been murdered.

The French documentary made it abundantly clear that the Dalai Lama functions as an absolute dictator in Dharamsala. The French film crew was even prevented by Tibetan officials from recording a dispute between a Dorje Shugden monk and his pro-Dalai Lama opponent.

Breaking with official orthodoxy, the France 24 report admitted that the Dalai Lama and his independence movement has no popular support in Tibet and that many Tibetans actually fear a return to the days of Lama autocracy. One of the thousands of Doje Shugden practitioners who fled from Dalai Lama worshipers told France 24 reporters:

If he’s really Buddha, if he’s really god, you know, he won’t create so many problems, you know, he won’t give us such trouble. I believe if he is a Buddha, he won’t create any problem for one human being, so we have changed our mind now, we don’t see him as we saw him earlier.

The Dalai Lama’s problem with these Buddhists is simply that they worship the symbolic god Dorje Shugden and not “his holiness, the Dalai Lama”. The exiled leader is persecuting Buddhists for not worshiping himself and his insatiable desire to become the puppet dictator of a ‘free Tibet’ under NATO hegemony. Any worshiper of Dorje Shugden is, then, automatically dismissed as an ‘agent’ of China.

The France 24 report also admitted that the Dorje Shugden community constitutes the majority in Tibet and that they were almost all pro-Chinese government.

In France we tend to associate Tibet with the Dalai Lama but there are many Tibetans who are Buddhists, who think that China actually contributed something to Tibet.

The reporter adroitly omitted the “quelque chose” which Tibetans thank the CPC for; namely, the liberation from serfdom!

After the reportage, the France 24 presenter asked one of the correspondents Capucine Henry:

So just how taboo is it to criticize the Dalai Lama?

To which Madame Henry replied:

It’s completely taboo. Actually our shooting of the reportage was very difficult because we had our camera smashed in. The Dalai Lama is considered as a living god. He has achieved a level of clairvoyance that means that every decision he takes is the rule of law. If you criticize the Dalai Lama, you are judged to be a Chinese spy.”]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&quot;So what do you think Bhuddism is without merit then, because some Lamas did some bad stuff in the past?&quot;

of course not. that would be like blaming darwin for the warped distortion social darwinists do to his work. the rulers of tibet were not acting on buddhist principles, they were acting in feudal principles. as the section of the article i posted shows, the his dalliance is persecuting buddhists right now.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I read you link with interest, I accept the brutal past of Tibet and I don&#039;t think the Dali Lama is whiter than white. I personally prefer, Thích Nhất Hạnh myself. 

No doubt the Tibetan involvment with NED is concerning but shows his naivity, their brutality is much like everyone else back then.

		<description><![CDATA[The Tibetan plight for me is one of Globalization wiping out ancient cultural traditions which are closely linked to tribal identity. The Chinese portray themselves as the liberators, freeing the Tibetan from years of slavery under awful rule of the Dalai Lamas. But things were never this bad under the Dalai Lamas that people would set themselves a fire. 

People have criticized the Dalai Lama, but who is without fault I ask you? But it seems like what is happening in Tibet is very similar to the plight of the Palestinians. 

The Tibetans are the native indigenous people who are being systematically driven out, killed, tortured, lands stolen etc etc. The Chinese of course have their own Hasbara on it all. 

The Chinese behave very like the Israeli.
&amp; the Tibetan behave very like the Palestinians.]]></description>
