6:77 While much frustration has piled up in My mind so far, I shall give returns for them. *Note: While “returns” (kayashi) have the implications of a response, it by no means has any implications of revenge or retaliation. That is because these returns are outbursts of parental love that help inform us of our mistaken mindset.

『おふでさき註釈』、p. 104 七七、従来からも、親神の心にはもどかしく思う事が沢山に積もっているが、それをかやしする。 註　かやしとは、かやし、返報の意であるが、それは決して復しゅうの意ではない。何とならば、親神様が我々人間の心得違いを、これによって知らして下さろうという、親心の発露に外ならないからである。
