Ofudesaki chushaku

3:52 For this to happen, the people of the world must cleanse their hearts. I, Oyagami, will become the broom to do the cleaning. Thus, take firm caution and watch for the truth that becomes revealed to you.

『おふでさき註釈』、p. 38

五二、そのためには、世界中の人々の胸を掃除せねばならぬ。それには、親神が自らほうきとなって掃除するから、現れて来る理を、しっかり注意して視ているようにせよ。

Commentary by Yoshitaro Ueda (2008)

From Michi no Dai: Foundation of the Path 33:41

God is working to hasten the setting up of the Kanrodai. To allow that to occur, God works as “the broom” to sweep clean the depths of everyone’s mind throughout the world. As verse 52 says, “Throughout the world, God is the broom for the sweeping of the innermost heart.” We are told to watch carefully as God sweeps the innermost heart of everyone in the world acting as the broom.
