I don't have a draft translation yet, but was wondering if anyone else would like to approach it. Note that I basically define a word here, "overlord". MEANING Overlord: Conscious being with following properties. #1. Will not die. #2. Has control over and knowledge of reality. Time remains sequential. #3. Has mastery of mathematics and potential realizations of time- space objects. --The meaning of a conscious being is to pursue one of two unachievable goals. LOVE: #1. Only two conscious beings exist. #2. Each conscious being is an overlord. #3. A seed of love binds the two. POWER: #1. Only one conscious being exists. #2. The conscious being is an overlord.
