Translation is a 5-step process of “straight thinking in the abstract” comparing and contrasting what seems to be truth with what you can syllogistically, axiomatically and mathematically (using word equations) prove is the truth. It is not an effort to change, alter or heal anything.
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, therefore united, therefore harmonious. I think therefore I am. Since I am and since Truth is all that is, therefore I, being, am Truth. Since I, being, am Truth, therefore I, being, have all the attributes of Truth. Therefore I, being, am total, complete, one, united, harmonious. Since I am mind (self-evident) and since I (being) am Truth, therefore Truth is mind. (Two things equal to a third thing are equal to each other.)
2) I am in a disharmonious relationship with my upstairs neighbor and with my camera.
Word-tracking:
harmony: concord
concord: one heart
heart: love, affection
affection: affect, to move someone
relationship: connection
neighbor: next door
object: thing
thing: something that exists on its own
3) Truth being one and Truth being mind, therefore Truth is one mind. Truth being all that is, therefore Truth is all that can affect or be affected. Therefore Truth is all that can love or be loved. Truth being one and a relationship implying more than one, therefore Truth can only be in a relationship with Itself. Truth being all that is, there is nothing next door to Truth. Therefore Truth leaves nothing out. Since Truth can only have a relationship with Itself and since I, being, am Truth, therefore I, being, can only have a relationship with Myself. Truth being one and Truth being all that is, therefore Truth is the only subject in the universe.. Since Truth is Mind and since Truth is all that is, that rules out things from the universe, therefore there are no objects in the Universe, only one Subject.
4) Truth is one mind.
Truth is all that can affect or be affected.
Truth is all that can love or be loved.
Truth can only be in a relationship with Itself.
Truth leaves nothing out.
I, being, can only have a relationship with Myself.
Truth is the only subject in the universe..
There are no objects in the Universe, only one Subject.
5) Truth is one heart in love with Itself.
