12:146 Until now, various paths have been passed through upon gathering all these instruments. *Note: This verse is referring to the matter that this Teaching was founded when those individuals representing each aspect of God’s providence were gathered as Service performers in a similar manner to how the instruments were gathered at the beginning during human creation.

『おふでさき註釈』、p. 194 一四六、これまでは、道具一切を皆寄せてどのような道すがらも通り抜けて来たのである。 註　本歌は、太初に道具衆を寄せて人間を創めかけられた如く、この度はそれぞれに理を享けたつとめ人衆を寄せてこの教をお創め下さる事を、仰せられているのである。
