(Minghui.org) I started practicing Falun Dafa in October 1997. Being able to get on and browse the Minghui website had always been my wish. However, my husband, who is not a practitioner, did not want to buy a computer. In my heart I asked Teacher to help me, and finally I was able to buy a computer a few days ago. At the time, I was exhilarated. I had never touched a mouse, let alone used a computer. Nonetheless, I had confidence that I would be able to use it to access Minghui.
My daughter, who is a practitioner, taught me some simple techniques on how to operate a computer, and I was then able to get on a website to break through the CCP's Internet blockade and from there log onto the Minghui website. When I saw Teacher's picture, I was so unbelievably happy and excited. It was like seeing a relative whom I had not visited for a long time. My wish had come true. At that time, Teacher had just published two new articles. I felt so grateful and yet so sad. I felt that I had not kept up with the progress of Fa-rectification because I had not gotten on Minghui until now, even though the website had been up for a dozen years. I did not do many things well and still have a lot of attachments. I did not live up to Teacher's expectations.
The next morning I turned on the computer, but I was unable to get online. I called the computer service, and they said there was a problem with the operating system, so I switched to another operating system. The next day after I got it fixed, I still could not get online, and the service provider again told me that it was a problem with the operating system. The third day the same thing happened again, and the service provider told me I still needed to switch operating systems. That night I sat in front of the computer wondering how a brand new computer could have such problems. There had to be something wrong with me. Was I too attached to the computer and too attached to getting onto Minghui? Later I realized that a practitioner should certainly be able get onto Minghui, and that it was not an attachment. I had delayed what I should have been doing for so many years, and so the problem must have been some kind of interference. I began to send forth righteous thoughts, asking Teacher help me eliminate the interference. I told myself that I must access Minghui and that no one could stop me.
I then recalled what Teacher said in Zhuan Falun,
“In the meantime, we will install in your body a system of ready-made mechanisms necessary for laying a foundation at the low level. This way, you will practice cultivation at a very high level.”
I asked Teacher to help install a system on my computer so that I could access Minghui. I turned on the computer and, with one click, I got onto the correct site and soon I was able to log onto Minghui. When I saw Teacher's picture on the website, I was beyond grateful and thanked Teacher repeatedly.
After I finished browsing Minghui, I was also able to access other websites. My husband was amazed, and I told him that Teacher had helped me fix the computer. He laughed, and my daughter and I laughed along with him with joy in our hearts.
