For many decades this sacred large statue of Dorje Shugden was in Gaden Monastery housed in the Lachi or the large prayer hall. The Lachi has a protector chapel containing images of various Dharma protectors of the Gaden Lineage.

Within this sacred Chapel this holy Dorje Shugden statue resided together with Mahakala, Kalarupa, Shidak Genye, Yamantaka and Vaisravana. Monks of Gaden Shartse and Gaden Jangtse would do pujas, prayers and rituals in the Lachi daily. Dorje Shugden was one of the prayers done together with the other protectors.

Now this holy statue is still in Gaden in its own chapel worshipped by many. Many lay people from the surrounding villages would come daily to make offerings and request prayers in Gaden Lachi.

The statue was installed by Kyabje Trijang Rinpoche and Kyabje Zong Rinpoche along with the whole sangha of Gaden happily.

Many sacred relics and mantras were put inside this image of Dorje Shugden. It has been worshipped by the sangha of Gaden, the laity and many visitors for decades.

His Holiness Dalai Lama suddenly on one of his visits said this Dorje Shugden statue should not be in the Lachi, but it should be placed in a chapel on its own.

Whatever the case, hundreds still go to make offerings to this very sacred and old statue of Dorje Shugden that has granted the wishes of many.

If you have a chance, you should visit this Dorje Shugden with sincerity in your heart. Your obstacles can be cleared too.
