『おふでさき註釈』、p. 144

一八、なるほど親神が自ら進み出て働かれたという事を感じたならば、かんろだいを一日も早く建てるようにせよ。

Commentary by Yoshitaro Ueda (2010)

From Michi no dai: Foundation of the Path 38:43

Verse 18 tells people to bring out the Kanrodai quickly once they have heard that Tsukihi, God the Parent, has openly manifested divine workings. The “Kanrodai” here refers to what is called “the model of the Kanrodai,” which Izo Iburi made in 1873 as instructed by Oyasama. The place where it is to be set up is Jiba. The location of Jiba was identified in 1875 – more precisely, on June 29 or on the lunar calendar date of May 26, the day of the Service of that month.
