| Article Three | Sometimes some spiritual entity, such as Mahakala and Ookuninushi, is called "Daikoku." But such an entity and the god called "Daikoku" in Daikokism are not the same. The relations between them are one that the formers are elements of the latter and one that both are called by the same name. |
| Article One | All entities which really exist is in the world called "the real world." The real world is the one world which is selected in innumerable possible worlds and which is given reality. |
