According to the Buddhist principle of Ichinen Sanzen, your strong ichinen of faith will soon find its manifestation. Regardless of what appears on the surface, the lives of your husband and children at their very core will be moving in the direction of the Mystic Law, and are already advancing on the path of Kosen-rufu without your knowing.
A few years ago, i came across the above passage, and for reasons i can't recall now, i cut out the inconspicious piece of photostated paper, found a plastic stand and placed it next to my butsudan. It had stood in that place for a good few years. Then, Victor had only sansho with me occasionally and frequently mumbled about the ''so many'' meetings that i was attending. Well, come next month, he will officially be an assistant district leader in the men's division! Indeed, ''the life of my husband has advanced on the path of Kosen-rufu'' without my conscious knowing. I am sure my girls' lives will be moving in the same direction now that both wings of the parents are flapping! :)
