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 one (since there is nothing other than all), therefore united, therefore harmonious, therefore limitless (all can have no limits), therefore infinite, therefore eternal, therefore dimensionless, therefore immeasurable.  I think therefore I m.  Since I am and since Truth is all that is, therefore I am Truth. Since I am Truth, therefore I have all the attributes of Truth.  Therefore I, being, am total, complete, one, united, harmonious, limitless, infinite, eternal, dimensionless, immeasurable.  I being Truth and I being mind, therefore Truth is Mind (Consciousness).

2)    Out of ignorance or fear, some people give their power or their money away.

Word-tracking:
ignorance:  not to know
fear:  evil intent
evil:  transgressing, going over the line, exceeding due limits
people: mortals
power:  ability to do or act, potent, able to be
money:  “on the money” = correct
give away:  as a bride, to betray, to give as a present
give up:  surrender, abandon, admit defeat

3)    Truth being one cannot at the same time be at war with Itself, therefore there is no victory or defeat in Truth.  Truth being all that is cannot be abandoned ’cause there is no where to abandon to.  Therefore Truth is perpetually at home.  Truth being all is therefore limitless, therefore eternal, therefore immortal, so people (being mortal) are a lie about the immortality of the one being of Truth.  Truth being all that is and power being the ability to be, therefore Truth is unlimited power.  Money being a form of power, therefore Truth is unlimited money.  Truth being without limits, there can be no limits to transgress, therefore there is no evil in Truth.  Since there is no evil in Truth, there is nothing to fear in Truth, therefore there is no fear in Truth. Truth being knowing and Truth being all that is, there can no “not knowing” (ignorance) in Truth, therefore Truth is All-Knowing.

4)    There is no victory or defeat in Truth.  
      Truth is perpetually at home.
        People (being mortal) are a lie about the immortality of the one being of Truth.  
        Truth is unlimited power.  
        Truth is unlimited money.
        There is no evil in Truth.
        There is no fear in Truth. 
 Truth is All-Knowing.

5)    Being immortal and all-knowing, Truth is perpetually at peace and at home with unlimited power and unlimited money.
