Hitherto I have often told you of My return. But you were wondering what it could be.

Truly, what was called My return is this. Be aware of it, all who are on the high mountains!

Until now, I have explained things in terms of retribution, but you have doubted what it has really meant.

6:78, 79 Although I have told you about these returns so far, no one knew what they were about. But the true meaning behind these returns that I told you about is that they are warnings that come in the form of illnesses and troubles. Because of this, those who are in high positions must all be aware of this and make sure they not have any mistaken use of the mind.

『おふでさき註釈』、p. 104

七八、七九、従来もかやしという事を度々と聞かしていたが、人々はそれが何の事か分からなかったのである。ところが、親神が説き聞かしていたかやしの真の意は、この身上事情の知らせの事であるから、上に立つ人々も皆この事を承知して、心得違いのないようになければならない。
