On Family Issues


I am always in awe of the workings of Myoho Renge Kyo in our lives. I trust your family issues did not bring great harm. I meditated on your safety and happiness. The Physical aspects of Threefold Lotus Kwoon and Quantum Life are straightforward training, but the spiritual awareness and growth gained from the Lotus Sutra are deeply life changing. I have seen ripples of affects through one's family tree resulting from a one-time simple introduction. A great deal depends upon the individual's openness and readiness.

Whatever your family issues, please remain at peace in the knowledge that the best possible result for all concerned is inevitable with your personal commitment to your own enlightenment.

Shall we say 11:00 AM on Tuesday?
Please confirm by return email. :-)


Sincerely,


Reverend Sylvain Chamberland
Sifu, Nichiren Buddhist Monk
Threefold Lotus Kwoon

BACKGROUND

This was a return email to a new person seeking out the Reverend's teachings on his own. After an initial meeting, the new student was to attend the Masters teaching on the following Sunday. The following email explains the situation.

I'm sorry to only get to you with this so late, but I've had some
family issues come up and won't be able to make it to the kwoon today.

For some reason these things always find the least convenient time
to happen, so please don't think that I'm not interested in learning
with you. If it's all right, I'd like to get with you Tuesday to set up
a time.


Sorry again,

-J
