“If persons destroy the teachings of the Buddha, they will have no filial sons, no harmony with their six kinds of relatives, and no aid from the heavenly deities...." -- Nichiren

Daisaku Ikeda's most filial and capable son died of a bleeding ulcer when he was 28 years old; his mother and father never converted to the Soka Gakkai religion; and the Buddhist gods failed to aid him when he most needed their help, in saving the Sho Hondo, the high sanctuary of SGI "Buddhism".
