Commentary

Commentary by Yoshitaro Ueda (2009)

From Michi no dai: Foundation of the Path 35:55–6

Verse 48 said that God will “show...God’s free and unlimited workings.” Now verse 49 is saying that when God starts to reveal the true workings of God, the minds of all people throughout the world will become purified. Only when the truth is taught can people understand the meaning of God’s workings and strive to sweep their hearts clean, thereby purifying their minds completely.
