Ofudesaki chushaku

3:53 From now, I will reveal Myself out into the open and will even cleanse the hearts of the people of the upper classes.

『おふでさき註釈』、p. 38 五三、今後は親神が表へ現れて、上流の方面も胸の掃除をする。

Commentary by Yoshitaro Ueda (2008)

From Michi no Dai: Foundation of the Path 33:41

Verse 53 says, “From now on, God will go forth,” meaning that God will openly reveal the divine workings, which is to say that God will take a positive stance in manifesting God’s workings. The phrase “mountains” means those in positions of authority and power. God will undertake to sweep their minds.
