Ofudesaki chushaku

2:36 From now on I, Oyagami, will enter the bodies of these people and have them realize* the greatness of these teachings.

『おふでさき註釈』、p. 25

三六、これからは親神がそれ等の人々の体内に入り込んで、本教の真価を悟らせるようにする。

Commentary by Yoshitaro Ueda (2008)

From Michi no dai: Foundation of the Path 32:53

From now, says the verse, God will make the distinction clear in the minds of these people, whose bodies God will enter. Making the distinction clear implies bringing understanding to the people. I think that it would be beneficial to read verses such as these while bearing in mind the implied meaning of the verbs “distinguish” and “understand,” which I talked about in my lecture on Part I. The phrase “enter their bodies” implies that God will let these people know through a health disorder.
