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".

Famous quotes containing the words claims, government and/or involvement:
“Let me live onward; you shall find that, though slower, the progress of my character will liquidate all these debts without injustice to higher claims. If a man should dedicate himself to the payment of notes, would not this be an injustice? Does he owe no debt but money? And are all claims on him to be postponed to a landlord’s or a banker’s?”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“But the wise know that foolish legislation is a rope of sand, which perishes in the twisting; that the State must follow, and not lead the character and progress of the citizen; the strongest usurper is quickly got rid of; and they only who build on Ideas, build for eternity; and that the form of government which prevails, is the expression of what cultivation exists in the population which permits it.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Even if you find yourself in a heated exchange with your toddler, it is better for your child to feel the heat rather than for him to feel you withdraw emotionally.... Active and emotional involvement between parent and child helps the child make the limits a part of himself.”
—Stanley I. Greenspan (20th century)
