Claims of Chinese Government Involvement
It is claimed that the Chinese Communist Government has used the Dorje Shugden issue to split the Tibetan people and counter the influence of the 14th Dalai Lama. Although the English version of one of the main Dorje Shugden website does not reveal any linkage to the Chinese Government, the Chinese language version of the same website claims that Manjusri, of whom Dorje Shugden was a reincarnation, was originated from the Shanxi Province in the People's Republic of China, and regularly reports news such as "Gyaincain Norbu received by the premier Wen Jiabao".

“The purpose of education is to keep a culture from being drowned in senseless repetitions, each of which claims to offer a new insight.”
—Harold Rosenberg (1906–1978)
“But, to speak practically and as a citizen, unlike those who call themselves no-government men, I ask for, not at once no government, but at once a better government. Let every man make known what kind of government would command his respect, and that will be one step toward obtaining it.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The mother whose self-image is dependent on her children places on those children the responsibility for her own identity, and her involvement in the details of their lives can put great pressure on the children. A child suffers when everything he or she does is extremely important to a parent; this kind of over-involvement can turn even a small problem into a crisis.”
—Grace Baruch (20th century)
