Translation is a 5-step process of “straight thinking in the abstract.” The first step is an ontological statement of being beginning with the syllogism: “Truth is that which is so. That which is not truth is not so. Therefore Truth is all there is.” The second step is the sense testimony (what the senses tell us about anything). The third step is the argument between the absolute abstract nature of truth from the first step and the relative specific truth of experience from the second step. The fourth step is filtering out the conclusions you have arrived at in the third step. The fifth step is your overall conclusion.
The claims in a Translation may seem outrageous, but they are always (or should always) be based on self-evident syllogistic reasoning. Here is one Translation from this week.
1) Truth is that which is so. That which is not truth is not so. Therefore Truth is all that is. Truth being all is therefore total, therefore complete, therefore full, therefore entire, therefore safe. I think therefore I am. Since I am and since Truth is all that is, therefore I am Truth. Therefore I, being, am total, complete, full, entire, safe. I being mind and I being Truth, therefore Truth is Mind (Consciousness).
2) Sometimes children have to lie in order to survive in their families
Word-tracking:
children: dependents
lie: deceive, ensnare, to fool
family: hierarchy, patriarchy, matriarchy
hierarchy: sacred rule rule by God
sacred: holy, wholly unimpaired, deity, God
3) Truth being all that is is therefore whole, therefore unimpaired. Therefore Truth is sacred. Truth being one, cannot have dependents or children. That would make Truth plural instead of singular. Therefore Truth is independent OR Truth is the singularity. Truth being the singularity, there is no Supreme Being, outside authority, no Father Superior or Mother Superior in Truth, therefore Truth is God. And there is no God but Truth. Since Truth is all that is and since Truth is God, therefore God is all that is. Since God is all that is, the perception that one needs to lie (be un-Godly) to survive is based on the lie that the survival of Truth is in question. Therefore the only obligation of Truth is to perceive Itself and to speak Itself. Truth being all, therefore limitless, therefore infinite, therefore eternal, the survival of Truth, the survival of being is not in question. Therefore survival is a given.
4) Truth is sacred.
Truth is independent OR Truth is the singularity.
Truth is God
God is all that is.
The only obligation of Truth is to perceive Itself and to speak Itself.
5) Truth is the Singularity, perceiving Itself and speaking Itself without beginning, without end.
