Two options are corrected in this question:

D) A powerful spirit resides in natural elements and the spirit must be protected.

Explanation:

Now, let's take a look why they're correct.

Shinto (神道) is the only religion that can be considered genuinely Japanese, with its origins blending with the Japanese people themselves. Two millennia ago, we noticed its predominance in the mysticism of the country. Its base is of pantheistic origin, with numerous deities, which ascribe sacred value to all elements of nature. In this point of view, everything in the universe is divine, interconnected and interdependent. Thus, not only living beings, but all visible and invisible elements of nature coexist in harmony and originate from the same source. Shinto is not a religion with a sacred book, or a complex philosophy to understand. It's just the connection with the natural elements, once you're one of them.
