A-san was plowing the rice paddy in order to prepare for rice planting. He wanted to complete the work within that day so that he could meet the schedule for the farm work. However, the cultivator broke down in the middle of the work. He called the vendor to check the problem. It was found that machine parts needed to be replaced and it would take 4 to 5 days for the new parts to arrive. A-san’s wife then asked him, “Did you offer the prayer?” Having realized that he had not, he offered the prayers. Then, what a surprise! The cultivator started working again. Needless to say, he was able to finish the work before the end of the day as scheduled. How wonderful to offer the prayers!
