This Yahoo group is not associated with the New Kadampa Tradition (NKT). It is a place for former members to come and openly discuss what it was like being part of this sectarian cult. It is also a place where family and friends, of those who practice with the New Kadampa Tradition, can come and openly discuss their concerns for their loved ones. Whether you are a former member or have a loved one who still is, please feel free to share with others what your experiences where like practicing with the New Kadampa Tradition. So many of us who got involved with the New Kadampa Tradition got involved not knowing anything about their history. So many of us leave with our lives being totally devastated. Here is a forum for the people who have left to come and openly discuss how they got the courage to leave the New Kadampa Tradition and re-do their lives and, if they so wished, how they continued practicing Dharma without the fear and guilt that comes from practicing with a sectarian tradition.

Some of the group rules are:

1. No NKT propaganda is allowed

Most of us are aware of what is taught in the NKT. As such we know longer wish to be exposed to it.

2. No NKT members/followers/students are allowed.

If you are happy with the NKT, and have no desire to leave, this group is not for you. If you join anyway trying to post and try to get Yahoo to delete this group, we can only assume you are a troll trying to cause disharmony. Such people will be banned and removed at once from the group.

3. No debate of Dorje Shugden is allowed.

Everyone who was a member of the cult is welcome here. Including those who are for and against Dorje Shugden. Wherever Shugden's name is mentioned a schism is soon to follow. In order to keep the harmony of the group no debate of Shugden is allowed.

For all rules of the group please see "Group Rules" in the Files section.
