Commentary by Yoshitaro Ueda (2008)
From Michi no dai: Foundation of the Path 32:42
1:45 We sometimes refer to Tenrikyo as “the path.” Here, the metaphor of a path appears for the first time in the Ofudesaki.
“Looking all over the world and through all ages,” God sees various “paths of life.” Indeed, life offers a great variety of paths.
