4:102 Once you have completed going through this path and all people purify their minds, the Parental love behind this single-hearted salvation shall cross over far and wide to places that ought to know about My intention next and bathe in My abundant divine blessings.

『おふでさき註釈』、p. 67

一〇二、この道を通りに毛手、一列の人々の心を澄ましたならば、次に親神の真意を知るべき所までも普くたすけ一条の親心を行きわたらせ、豊かな神恩に浴させるようにしてある。

Commentary by Yoshitaro Ueda (2009)

From Michi no dai: Foundation of the Path 34:61–2

Once we have followed the path of salvation, the path of single-hearted salvation, from beginning to end, “Kara will have become part of Nihon”–which is to say, God the Parent’s teachings will have reached and become known to Kara, the word “Kara” referring to those who do not yet understand God the Parent’s teachings as well as to their realm. This means that God the Parent’s teachings will spread through the world. In verse 103, the original says, “Kara no ji o nihon jii ni,” but we supply “no” after “nihon” so that this phrase reads, “Kara no ji o nihon no jii ni.”
