質問ー「大霊（神）を、全能でしかも慈悲ある存在、と形容するのは正しいでしょうか」＊S福音５章
「なんら差し支えありません。大霊は全能です。なぜなら、その力は宇宙およびそこに存在するあらゆる形態の生命を支配する自然法則として顕現しているからです。大霊より高いもの、大霊より偉大なもの、大霊より強大なものは存在しません。宇宙は、誤ることのない叡智と慈悲深い目的をもった法則によって統括されています。その証拠に、あらゆる生命が暗黒から光明へ、低きものから高きものへ、不完全から完全へ向けて進化していることは、間違いない事実です。
このことは、慈悲の要素が摂理の中に配剤されていることを意味します。ただ、その慈悲性に富む摂理にも機械性があることを忘れてはなりません。いかなる力をもってしても、因果律の働きに干渉することはできないという意味での機械性です。
いかに霊格の高い霊といえども、一つの原因が数学的正確さをもって結果を生んでいく過程を阻止することはできません。そこに摂理の機械性があります。機械性という用語しかないのでそう言ったのですが、この用語では、その背後に知的で目的意識をもつダイナミックなエネルギーが控えている感じが出ません。
わたしがお伝えしようとしている概念は、全能にして慈悲にあふれ、完全にして無限なる存在でありながら、地上の人間がとかく想像しがちな“人間神”的な要素のない神です。しかし神は無限なる大霊である以上、顕現の仕方も無限です。あなたがたお一人お一人がミニチュアの神なのです。お一人お一人の中に神という完全性の火花、全生命のエッセンスである大霊の一部を宿しているということです。その火花を宿しているからこそ存在できているのです。ただし、それが地上的人間性という形で顕現している現段階にあっては、皆さんは不完全な状態にあるということです。
神の火花は完全です。それがあなたがたの肉体を通して顕現している側面は、きわめて不完全です。死後はエーテル体、幽体、ないしは霊的身体――どうお呼びになっても結構です。要するに死後に使用する身体と理解すればよろしい――で自我を表現することになりますが、そのときは現在よりは不完全さが減ります。霊界の界層を一段また一段と上がっていくごとに不完全さが減少していき、それだけ内部の神性が表に出るようになります。ですから、完全といい不完全といい、程度の問題です」

Question - "Is it correct to describe the great spirit (God) as an omnipotent and merciful being?"
“It ’s okay. The great spirit is omnipotent because its power manifests itself as a law of nature that governs the universe and all forms of life that exist there. What is higher than the great spirit and greater than the great spirit. There is nothing more powerful than the Spirit, and the universe is governed by laws that have no wisdom and merciful purpose, and all the life goes from darkness to light, from the low There is no doubt that it is evolving from high to imperfect, from imperfect to complete.
This means that the element of mercy is dispensed into the providence. But don't forget that the merciful providence is also mechanical. It is mechanical in the sense that it cannot interfere with the work of causality with any force.
No matter how spiritual, a spirit cannot prevent the process of producing a result with mathematical accuracy. There is providence mechanicality. I said that because there is only the term mechanical, but this term doesn't make me feel that the dynamic energy with intellectual and purpose-consciousness is behind it.
The concept I am trying to convey is a god that is omnipotent, merciful, complete and infinite, but without the “human god” element that people on earth tend to imagine. However, since God is an infinite great spirit, the way of manifestation is infinite. Each one of you is a miniature god. Each person has a spark of perfection as God and a part of the soul, the essence of all life. It is possible to exist just because of the sparks. However, at the present stage where it manifests in the form of earthly humanity, you are in an imperfect state.
God's spark is perfect. The side that it manifests through your body is extremely imperfect. After death, ether body, ghost body, or spiritual body-whatever you call is fine. In short, it should be understood as the body to be used after death—to express the ego, but then the imperfection will be less than at present. As you go up and down the spirit world, imperfections decrease, and the inner divinity becomes more apparent. So it's a matter of degree, perfect and good and imperfect.
