Western Shugden Society
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Western Shugden Society (or WSS) was a campaign group that advocates Dorje Shugden, and which dissolved itself,[1] along with its parent organisation, the International Shugden Community, after a 2015 Reuters investigation[2] determined that the religious sect had the backing of the Chinese Communist Party[3] and had emerged as an instrument in Beijing’s long campaign to undermine support for the Dalai Lama.
