Wow. Buddhist monks are pretty peaceful??, I had no idea there was such dissent amongst Buddhists and the Dalai LamaAround 50 members of a Buddhist splinter group have begun a protest against the Dalai Lama at Sydney Olympic Park, where the Tibetan spiritual leader is hosting a day of meditation teachings today.
His Holiness arrived in Sydney this morning.
Members of the Western Shugden Society, many of them Buddhist monks and nuns, were chanting "Dalai Lama, stop lying" and "Dalai Lama go away".
The society, which followed the Nobel Laureate across the United Kingdom and Germany, accused the Buddhist leader of suppressing their religious freedom and of being a religious dictator.
"The Dalai Lama has come to Australia to talk about love and compassion but he is not practising what he is preaching," a spokeswoman for the group, Kelsang Lhachog, said.
