Translation is a 5-step process of “straight thinking in te abstract” comparing and contrasting what you think is the truth with what you can syllogistically, axiomatically and mathematically (using word equations) prove is the truth.
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 one, therefore united, therefore harmonious, therefore lovely, therefore love. 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, whole, one, united, harmonious, lovely, love. Since I am mind/consciousness (self-evident), and since I, being, am truth, therefore truth is mind/consciousness (two things being equal to a third thing are equal to each other).
2) My country is becoming fascist and there’s nothing I can do about it.
Word-tracking:
country: from Latin contra-, against, separate nation
nation: native, born
Fascism: dictatorship, centralized control of private enterprise, extreme nationalism, lack of opposition
private: single, individual
helpless: help, alone, assist, to stand beside
govern: steer, guide, cybernetics
3) Truth being one, there is nothing against or contra- (country) truth, therefore truth is the only country. Since truth is consciousness and since truth is one, there can be no government, steering, guidance other than truth, therefore truth is the only form of government. Truth being one, what truth says, goes, therefore truth is a dictatorship of oneness. Truth being one, there is no enterprise other than truth, therefore truth is the only enterprise. Truth being one country is therefore one nation. Truth being infinite, there are no extremes in truth, therefore truth is (non-extreme) non-violent nationalism. Truth being one, there is no opposition to truth, therefore Truth is without opposition. Truth being one, there is no standing beside (assisting) truth, therefore truth helps itself.
4) Truth is the only country.
Truth is the only form of government.
Truth is a dictatorship of oneness.
Truth is the only enterprise.
Truth is one nation.
Truth is (non-extreme) non-violent nationalism.
Truth is without opposition.
Truth helps itself.
5) Truth is the only form of government, a dictatorship of oneness, helping itself, loving itself.
