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 there is.  Truth being all is exclusive of that  which is not truth.  Therefore Truth is pure, unmitigated being.  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 exclusive of all that is not Truth.  Therefore I, being, am pure.  Therefore I, being, am unmitigated being.  Since I, being, am Truth and since I, being, am mind.  Therefore Truth is Mind (Consciousness).  

2)    Items of value can be lost or misplaced.
Word-tracking:
item:  a single thing, entity
thing:  entity
value: worth, power
power:  potent, the ability to be
lost:  gone, missing, absent
possess:  to have, own, master, occupy

3)    Truth being all that is, therefore Truth masters all, Truth occupies all, Truth possesses all.  Truth being all that is, there is no being other than Truth, therefore Truth is the only Possessor/the only Possession.  Truth being all that is is therefore all that is present.  Truth being all that is present cannot at the same time be partially lost or missing. Therefore Truth is wholly present.  Truth being all that is and power being the ability to be, therefore Truth is unlimited power, unlimited value, unlimited worth.  Truth being all that is, there can be no entity other than Truth, therefore Truth is the only Thing.

4)    Truth masters all, Truth occupies all, Truth possesses all. 
      Truth is the only Possessor/the only Possession.
        Truth is wholly present (OR Truth is the Holy present)
        Truth is unlimited power, unlimited value, unlimited worth. 
       Truth is the only Thing.

5)    Truth si the only Possessor, the only Thing Possessed.
