This providence is the foundation upon which our daily lives are built, and embodied in this providence is the parental heart that wishes for all humankind to lead the Joyous Life. When we realize how extraordinary and precious this providence is, a sense of gratitude will well up within us. Since the key to showing one’s gratitude is to do something that will bring joy to one’s benefactor, we can easily understand that our gratitude is best expressed by using our minds and bodies in a manner that is conducive to realizing the Joyous Life, as that is what most delights God the Parent. Expressing our gratitude to God the Parent by selflessly using our minds and bodies for the sake of others is what we call “hinokishin.”
Dahil ang mahalagang bagay upang maipakita ang pasasalamat ay ang paggawa ng bagay na ikaliligaya ng tagapagpala, madali nating maiintindihan na, ang pasasalamat natin ay maaaring ipakita sa pamamagitan ng paggamit ng ating isipan at katawan sa kaaya-ayang paraan upang makamit ang Maligayang Pamumuhay, at iyon ay ang makapagpapaligaya sa Diyos Magulang. Ang pagpapakita ng ating pasasalamat sa Diyos Magulang sa pamamagitan ng paggamit ng ating isipan at katawan para sa kapakanan ng iba nang walang makasariling hangarin ay tinatawag nating “hinokishin.”
