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 whole, therefore complete, therefore otherless, therefore one, therefore united, therefore harmonious, therefore at peace.  I think, therefore I am. Since I am and since Truth is all that is, therefore I am Truth.  Since I, being, am Truth, therefore I, being, am total, whole, complete, otherless, one, united, harmonious, at peace.  Since I am mind and I am Truth, therefore Truth is Mind (Consciousness).

2)    People get the diseases they deserve.

Word-tracking:
deserve:  to be worthy of, to earn, serve, slave
disease:  ease, comfort, used to, lying adjacent to
people:  mortals
brain:  a person’s mind

3)    Truth being all is therefore limitless, therefore immortal.  So people (mortals) is a lie about the immortality of Truth.  Truth being immortal, and all-inclusive, cannot experience poverty (lack) in any area of life. Therefore the life of Truth is a life of comfort, affluence and ease.  The life of Truth being a life of ease cannot at the same time be a life of disease.  Truth being harmonious, is therefore orderly and thus cannot include any kind of brain or mental disorder or deficiency. Therefore Truth is sound, sane and infinite.  Truth being one cannot be exposed to a dangerous other, viral  or otherwise. Therefore Truth is totally invulnerable OR Truth is all that is communicable. Truth being one, pure, unadulterated, has no need to defend against anything untoward, therefore Truth is not inflamed.  Truth is cool.

4)    Truth is immortal.
        People (mortals) is a lie about the immortality of Truth
        The life of Truth is a life of comfort, affluence and ease. 
        Truth is sound, sane and infinite.
        Truth is totally invulnerable 
        Only Truth is communicable.
        Truth is not inflamed.  
        Truth is cool.

5)    Good News!  Truth/Mind is immortal, comfortable, affluent, at ease, sound, sane, infinite, invulnerable, communicable and cool.
