6:56 I descended after discerning the causality of Jiba and the causality of Oyasama’s soul, borrowing Her mouth to reveal the Teaching because I wish to have you human beings know about everything.

『おふでさき註釈』、p. 101 五六、親神がぢばのいんねん、おやさま魂のいんねんを見澄ましてぢばに天降り、おやさまの口を借りて教を説くのも、人間に何かとよろづ一切の事を知らしたいからである。

Yoshitaro Ueda (2009)

From Michi no dai: Foundation of the Path 35:79

Having discerned the Causality of the Residence and Jiba as well as the Causality of the Soul of Oyasama, who had served as the mother in the beginnings of origin, Tsukihi, God the Parent, descended in order to “teach about all matters”–which is to say, to make any and every thing known to humans.
