(Clearwisdom.net) I would like to share a few things that I have experienced with fellow practitioners. From them, I have witnessed the immeasurable power of righteous thoughts.

Recently, another practitioner and I worked together on some Dafa related work. Since we could not meet in person, we primarily communicated with each other via email. On one occasion, I made several CD covers for truth clarifying. I planned to send the file to the practitioner using email, but even after a whole night of trying to send the file, it would not send correctly. Every time I tried, the Internet would disconnect for a short time and the email would not go through. However, I had no problem sending emails that had no attachments. I double checked what I was doing many times and eventually realized that that my problems were not related to technical specifics, such as the file size. I thought that I should send forth righteous thoughts, but because my mind was not calm, my righteous thoughts were weak and had no effect. Finally I sent the practitioner an email to explain my situation.

The next day, the practitioner replied to my email and reminded me to strengthen my righteous thoughts. I realized I had some problems, so I started to send forth righteous while sending the email attachment. I tried a few times, but I still could not send the email successfully.

I calmed myself down and reexamined my situation and the problems I was having. I noticed that when I sent forth righteous thoughts, I unexpectedly found myself thinking, "Maybe the email account I used disabled my ability to send emails with attachments" and "Maybe the evil interfered with or blocked my network." When I realized my problems, I sent forth one thought, "No matter what kind of interference there is, and regardless of whether it is my problem or other factors, I will break through it and send the email."

At that moment, I suddenly remembered Master's words in Zhuan Falun:

"Some people say that there is no central energy channel. Then tell me, why can they cultivate a central channel in Tantrism? The fact is, when you add up all the energy channels in a person's body there are over 10,000 of them. They crisscross vertically and horizontally just like blood vessels do, and there's even more of them than blood vessels. There aren't any blood vessels in the spaces between your organs, but there are energy channels there. So, starting from the top of the head, energy channels crisscross vertically and horizontally in all parts of your body, and in Tantric cultivation they connect them. Maybe they're not straight at first, so they open them, and then they gradually widen them, and that slowly forms a straight energy channel." (Translated by North America Practitioners, 2003)

I thought that even though the network was restricted, I would break through it and send out the email. I suddenly had the sense that my one thought could move a mountain. I repeated the same steps that I had used to send the email before and sent forth strong righteous thoughts. The progress bar moved gradually from 1 percent to 100 percent. After a minute, the email that I could not send before had been sent out successfully. After that, I sent out another email attachment for more CD covers. Since then, I have never had any problems sending email attachments.

On another occasion, my righteous thoughts helped me persuade my sister to withdraw from the CCP and its related organizations. My sister was very surprised when I mentioned the idea of withdrawing to her. She is in the army and she was forced to join the CCP. Moreover, her department has very high security and they monitor the withdrawals very strictly. Although she accepted the truth that I presented to her, she was still afraid that spies might have overheard our conversation. She was afraid that if she announced her withdrawal from the CCP and others knew about it, it would have serious consequences. She looked nervous and told me that she would think about it.

She usually liked to call me to talk when she had free time, but after I talked to her about quitting the Party, she did not call me for more than a week. I knew that she was under a lot of pressure from the evil forces and that her knowing side was unable to take control. When I sent forth righteous thoughts every day, during the last half minute, I specifically focused on her and the people around me who were in her same situation, and eliminated the evil factors that controlled them.

About ten days later, I called her and talked about some other things, and then mentioned withdrawing from the CCP. She was very calm and she told me to use her nickname to create the announcement to quit the Party. She acted like a completely different person. She also told me that she had spoken to her husband about quitting. I am very happy for her.

Strong righteous thoughts also helped me save one of my colleagues. I clarified the truth to him before and he accepted the truth quite well. However, when I talked to him about withdrawing from the CCP, he said that he had only joined the Communist Youth League and the Young Pioneers, and that he had never joined the CCP. He felt that it was not necessary for him to make such an announcement at his age. No matter what I said, I still could not change his mind.

I treated his situation the same as my sister's. I used some time every day when sending forth righteous thoughts to specifically focus on him. After a few days, I again mentioned quitting the CCP to him. I asked him, "How many times in your life did you seriously swear something? You swore to the evil Party twice in your life. Don't you regret it? Don't you think it will count against you?" He was silent for a few seconds and then agreed to make the announcement in the Epoch Times about withdrawing from the CCP and its related organizations.

I hope that the practitioners who do not pay enough attention to or do not do well sending forth righteous thoughts can take it seriously and send forth their purest thoughts.
