Third Edition

When this dust is completely swept away, nothing will be left but the single-hearted salvation of any and everything.

Inoue/Eynon

When the dust is completely swept away, then My single-hearted universal salvation shall come.

Commentary by Yoshitaro Ueda (2008)

From Michi no dai: Foundation of the Path 32:51

Once the dust is completely swept away, universal salvation is all that will happen, whereby no illness or any other problem will be left unaddressed. The phrase “nothing will remain but...salvation” indicates that God the Parent’s only desire is to bring salvation. This leads to the theme of the Service.
