This article is incomplete.

It does not detail the controversies that Geshe Kelsang Gyatso was involved in.

Moreover, the article seems to lay blame at the feet of Lama Zopa and Lama Yeshe and to stress Geshe Kelsang Gyatso's accomplishments.

It should be edited to show both sides of the story.

The above point is not correct - please re-read the sections on Separation from FPMT and The Establishment of NKT-IKBU. These can hardly be said to be biased strongly in favour of either party. Reference is made to differences of opinion between FPMT members and proto-NKT mnembers, and to how these differences were eventually resolved.

The article may appear biased to one who holds strong opinions on the subject, but an objective reading doesn't seem to back this up. Atisha's cook (talk) 13:37, 9 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Serious allegations[edit]

To accuse the FPMT of illegal activity is a serious claim and should be backed by evidence. However, as a sidenote, if those people knew of those actions, they should have reported it to the authorities. Jmlee369 (talk) 03:46, 30 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There are individuals who witnessed these illegal activities and who could give detailed testimony if it came to it, even in a court of law. But this was a long time ago and they only wish to give the details if it ends up proving necessary as time has moved on. Managers and teachers of the FPMT from that time are well aware of these activities and as a result have not questioned this account, which in fact steers clear of going into details for their sake. This all happened a long time ago -- what matters is how it impacted upon Manjushri Institute at the time and why the Priory group wished to separate from the FPMT.

This article is pure Hagiography of Kelsang Gyatso, and has no place in an Encyclopedia. Kelsang Gyatso is a criminal charlatan who stole Manjushri Institute from Lama Yeshe. This article is so heavily biased as to prove that the Wikipedia project cannot continue in its current form. It might also have been nice if it were mentioned that Kelsang Gyatso's minions began to burn Manjushri Institute's massive library collection, keeping only the dozen or so books written by Kelsang Gyatso, until one of the concerned residents rescued the remaining books and gave them to Samye Ling Monastery in Scotland. Please delete the article at once, as you obviously have such contempt for the truth that you are unwilling to replace it with an accurate account! Your article looks just like the kind of thing you get from Mormon "history". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.42.254.157 (talk) 21:11, 25 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
