doc benway Posted February 8, 2008 I'm carrying on the Tao of Physics discussion from the other thread. When I first read that book it blew my mind. It was about 20 years ago. I was very science oriented and when I saw the common understanding between the experimental physics and Taoism, I was hooked forever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oolong Rabbit Posted February 11, 2008 Pero, Is this Dorje Shugden? And is he the same deity the chinese call Lei Gong? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pero Posted February 11, 2008 Pero, Is this Dorje Shugden? And is he the same deity the chinese call Lei Gong? Well I googled him as until I have never seen him before (as I didn't/don't have any wish to see him), only read his description, and that isn't him, luckily. Most notably he is missing a hat (which signifies gyalpos in general) and he rides a snowlion (or something). And he holds a sword. I don't know who this green is. No need to post his picture.

When I was asking if this is Dorje Shugden, I was refering to the pic you posted. The one I posted was Lei Gong. Sorry for the confusion. I am not very knowledgeable about Tibetan buddhism. I always considered it a little too dogmatic for my tastes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pero Posted February 11, 2008 Ooooohhhh, sorry... The pic I posted is Dorje Drollo, a wrathful emanation of Guru Padmasambhava. I wouldn't post a pic of Dolgyal... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
