"That is why the Great Teacher Miao-lo stated, 'The stronger one's faith, the greater the protection of the gods.' So long as one maintains firm faith, one is certain to receive the great protection of the gods."

- WND, Vol. 1, page 614)

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"In a letter to Ota Jomyo on January 24th, 1275, the Daishonin writes: 'in matters pertaining to truth in both the sacred and secular realms, it is most important to determine what is superior and what inferior; [whether in the secular realm or the realm of Buddhism], one must know what is primary and what is merely secondary' (WND – 2, 523).

"In the realms of both society and Buddhism, we must discern what has true value and merit. We must also ensure that falsehood does not defeat truth."

40th Soka Gakkai Headquarters Leaders' Meeting, Create Great Triumphant Dramas of Life!, Januray 1993, reshown at leaders meeting January 12th, 2019. From January 22nd, 2019 Seikyo Newspaper, translation released February 2019
