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. It is a sort of prayer. It is a salute to the answer already arrived.

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 a “Finished Kingdom.”  I think therefore I am.  Since I am and since Truth is all that is, therefore I, being, am Truth (the amness of me is Truth).  Since I, being, am Truth, therefore I, being, have all the attributes of Truth.  Therefore I, being, am total, whole, complete, a “Finished Kingdom.”  Since I, being, am truth and since I am mind (self-evident), therefore Truth is Mind. (Euclid’s Axiom:  Things being equal to a third thing are equal to each other.)  Since Truth is Mind therefore Mind has all the attributes of Truth.  Therefore Mind is total, whole, complete, a “Finished Kingdom.”

2)    There are selves within me that are ready and waiting to be hurt, hated, scared, infected, dismissed, mocked, bullied.

Word-tracking:
self:  perceived personality
personality: person, characteristics, role
characteristics:  qualities
qualities:  kind
kind:  type, sort
type: belonging to a certain group 

3)    Truth being all that is, there can be no self other than Truth, therefore Truth is the only Self.  Truth being the only Self, therefore selves which are untruthful are not possible.  A self waiting to be hurt cannot be so since there is no self other than Truth and Truth does not hurt Itself.  A self waiting to be hated is not possible, since there is no other self than Truth and Truth does not hate Itself.  A self waiting to be scared cannot be since there is no other self than Truth and Truth is not scared of Itself.  A self waiting to be infected cannot be since Truth is the only self and Truth does not infect Itself.  A self waiting to be dismissed cannot be since Truth is the only Self and Truth does not dismiss Itself.  A self waiting to be mocked cannot be since Truth is the only Self and Truth does not mock Itself.  A self waiting to be bullied cannot be since Truth is the only Self and Truth does not bully Itself.

4)    Truth is the only Self.
        Selves which are untruthful are not possible.
        Truth does not hurt Itself.
        Truth does not hate Itself. 
        Truth is not scared of Itself. 
        Truth does not infect Itself.  
        Truth does not dismiss Itself.  
        Truth does not mock Itself
        Truth does not bully Itself.

5)    The one Self does not hurt, does not hate, is not scared, does not infect, does not dismiss, does not mock, does not bully.
