1:15 By performing the Kagura Service and Teodori, your minds will become joyous, and because your minds will also be cleansed and purified of dust, I, Oyagami, will be able to ride upon your minds and work accordingly. That is why I to perform the Kagura Service and Teodori even a moment sooner. If you do this, I shall see it as a sign and surely reveal My miraculous workings.

『おふでさき註釈』、pp. 6–7

一五、かぐらづとめやてをどりをすると、人々の心が陽気になり、ほこりの心も奇麗に洗い清められるから親神の方でもその心の理に乗って働くのである。だから一刻も早くかぐらづとめやてをどりの実行にかかれ。そうすれば、こおつとめを合図に不思議な親神の働きが必ず現れてくる。

Commentary by Yoshitaro Ueda (2008)

From Michi no dai: Foundation of the Path 32:36

1:15 The verse urges us to quickly set about performing the Teodori, for the performance of the Dance with Hand Movements, which comprises the Yorozuyo and the Twelve Songs, will serve as the “sign for miraculous things to come.”
