Posted on June 1, 2016 #1 AuthorI really like this illustrated story of Dorje Shugden because it covers one of the important aspects of Tibetan Buddhism: Dharma Protector.
It started with the explanation of what is Dharma Protector, needs of Dharma Protectors, the differences between enlightened and unenlightened Dharma Protector. It then clearly explains the history of Dorje Shugden, the incarnation lineage and how the prayers are composed.
I recommend everyone who wishes to understand more about Dharma Protector or Dorje Shugden.

This makes it easier to visualize the story and thus we can relate better and remember better. Very innovative way of reaching the populace.
