Letting Go of My Attachments; Not Relying on Others

(Clearwisdom.net) Everything went smoothly while I did Dafa work on the Internet for several years, and I was delighted with myself. However, the evil elements are all-pervasive. If you have any human attachments, they will see them and disrupt you. One day, my Internet connection suddenly failed.

All of the interruptions are aimed at my human attachments. The purpose is to interrupt my validating the Fa. So why was I interrupted? It was because I didn't get rid of my own human notions and thus allowed persecution to come into being. The other reason was that I didn't study the technology diligently. The computer system was installed by my husband. Several years passed, and I never thought about learning it because it would take time and effort to do so. I just wanted to rely on others and thought that as long as I could get onto the Internet, it was fine. However, I knew that overseas, fellow practitioners went to a sales class to learn how to promote the Chinese New Year Spectacular. So why couldn't I put some work into learning computer technology? I might learn of other ways to get on the Internet. I started to read the Technical Application Manual for Novices to Set up Material Production Sites, and I made up my mind to teach myself.

I know that all of my wisdom and abilities come from Dafa. Without Master and Dafa, I could never do these things. I continued to consult with the Internet service provider, and I demanded that they restore the network. There was a process of improving my character while doing so. There were lots of notions and incorrect behaviors that were exposed in the process of my trying to correct the Internet connection issue.

The person in charge of support said that I didn't need assistance from someone to solve the problem. This person told me that my family was the only one whose access was cut off, and I should know the reason. He was implying that my access was cut off because I was a Falun Gong practitioner. I said, "You should know that Falun Gong practitioners are good people, and it is natural for us to have a computer at home, isn't it?" Actually, I should not have looked at the problem with regular human notions. If I just focus on what I want and do not look inside, I wouldn't be able to validate the Fa. However, if I handle myself according to Dafa and my mindset measures up to the standard of Dafa, then everything will change for the better. Master will take care of everything.

Indeed, after I rectified myself, my network connection returned.
