Tenrikyo Ofudesaki - All Are Hastened and Expected To Awaken -
Expanding
this path of awakening for all of the minds of the world, and helping each
other to show ways to reveal the knowledge and understanding of the original
consciousness that individual self images rise out of and are reflected to,
requires the efforts of very broad minded "timbers",
"instruments", "intermediaries", "path finders", "carpenters" and the like to work at
hastening, crafting and teaching in "every kind of way" the work of
identifying and returning the self-centered imagination to its true origin.
It is easy to get tangled up in misunderstandings from the past as they define the present but when used sincerely the sure guide of comparing our mind with the "mind of God", the original mind, the "mind like clear water", the mind "swept totally clean", the mind that all of the "mud" has been removed from, the totally calm and settled mind, the totally purified mind we can see our way forward and determine what our role in hastening awakening might be.
everything will proceed as God intends.
Today is the beginning of marvelous things. All of you
will come along with me because of the original causality.
About causality: though people are numerous.
never think that I discriminate among any of you.
To God, who began this world,
all of you in the world are equally My beloved children.
Because of My love for all My children,
I exhaust My mind in every kind of way.
I desire to teach everything to you children quickly.
Take notice of this hastening in the mind of God!
