Maintaining a Pure Heart to Overcome the Internet Blockade

I. Don't Be Affected by False Impressions
By a practitioner from China

After learning that the communist regime attacked the websites operated by practitioners, I decided to add the following thought when sending forth righteous thoughts, “Eliminate all the evil factors, dark minions, and rotten demons that interfere with practitioners’ websites. Let practitioners’ websites be accessed without any Internet blockade!”

Recently I met a practitioner in another city. We needed to visit the Minghui website (Chinese version of Clearwisdom). However, I hadn’t brought FreeU 2.3 Edition, the latest edition of software that can help break through China’s Internet blockade. It was updated after the previous edition no longer worked. But we only had FreeU 1.7 that day. I tried with the old edition and failed. I silently asked Master for help and sent forth righteous thoughts at the same time. On the second try I still failed, but I continued sending forth righteous thoughts and was not affected by the false impression at all. Soon after, I accessed the Dynaweb website and successfully visited the Minghui website.

From this experience I enlightened that to break through the Internet blockade, technology is necessary; but what is more essential is our pure heart and firm belief in Master and Dafa, by which we can remain unaffected in front of false impressions.

II. Only by Studying the Fa with a Pure Heart Can We Overcome the Internet Blockade
By a practitioner from China

I think that the recent severe Internet blockade by the communist regime is related to mainland practitioners’ minds; otherwise, it could not exist. One loophole could be practitioners’ attachment of depending on others over a long period of time. We always depend on practitioners outside of China to upgrade the anti-censorship software. But this actually goes in line with ordinary people’s principles. Master taught us,

“…becoming more dependent on so-called modern tools. Consequently, human inborn capabilities have gradually become atrophied.” ("Lecture Nine" in Zhuan Falun)

In fact, it is through diligent cultivation and righteous thoughts that practitioners outside of China were able to develop and update the anti-censorship software. Many miracles manifested during the process of developing and updating the software. When practitioners inside China use the software, we also need righteous thoughts and good xinxing. As cultivators, we need to upgrade our xinxing.

Recently, the communist regime has severely blocked the Internet. I had the following experience during this period. If I studied the Fa well and with my heart, I could access the Internet easily that day, even though I used an old edition. However, if I didn’t study the Fa well or if I failed to pass a xinxing test, I couldn’t access the Internet, even though I used the latest edition. Sometimes when I was not in a good cultivation state, and I needed to handle some matter online and had a good understanding of the matter, I could access the Internet. However, as soon as I finished the matter, I couldn’t surf the Internet again.

From this experience, I enlightened that whether one can break through the Internet blockade is actually a matter of xinxing and his/her state of studying the Fa. As we send forth righteous thoughts to eliminate the evil factors that block the Internet, we also need to upgrade our xinxing so we can break through the Internet interference from the root.
