6:121 Once human beings awaken to the truth that I made each of their bodies and that their bodies are things they borrow from Me, there will no longer be anyone who behaves selfishly or shows his or her aggression or greed.

『おふでさき註釈』、p. 111–2 一二一、世界中の人間が銘々の身体は親神によって造られ、親神から借りているのであるという真実を悟ったならば、誰しも強気強欲を出して自分勝手の振舞いをする者ははなくなってしまう。
