Commentary by Yoshitaro Ueda (2008)
From Michi no Dai: Foundation of the Path 33:29
The phrase “minds of the world” refers to the minds of all people in the world. When the minds of people throughout the world become “spirited by being single-hearted with God,” as the previous verse says, peace “will come to Nihon, the term Nihon referring to those who have understood God’s intention or the place inhabited by those who are in accord with the divine intention. The word “peace” refers to a state in which things are as they should be. Thus, the second half of the verse means that the world will be as God the Parent desires.
