4:126 Do not ever take this story about the creation of human beings lightly. Because I speak of My intention in order to save everyone in the world who are My children, I must have you fully settle it in your mind. |
『おふでさき註釈』、p. 71 一二六、人間を始め出したこの話は、かりそめの事と思うてはならぬ。世界一列の子供を救けたいために、親神の意中を語るのであるから、よく心に聞いて置かねばならぬ。 |
Commentary by Yoshitaro Ueda (2009)
From Michi no dai: Foundation of the Path 34:66
What the Ofudesaki calls “this talk” is not one of triviality. God’s desire is to “save all people in the world.” This is an important point. The story of the truth of origin–the Story of Creation–is a story about the truth of salvation, a story that is told to save the entire world. When we say that this path is one that will save people by teaching the origin, the core part of the “origin” refers to the story of the truth of origin or the Story of Creation. This story is a story about the truth of salvation. It is also a story that reveals the significance and truth of the Service. All these things come together as one.
