Canim Gloria and all,
dear alllll talented and gorgeous translators of Heaven
something drew my attention:
BOOK- message 91:
"Yet at the same time when stg strikes a chord in you, it strikes a chord."
I did not like the translation of this sentence, therefore I want to re-write. I know the meaning of "striking the chord" yet can you pls make this sentence a bit clear for me..
loooooooooooooooooooooooooove you all
Engin


Okay, you are referring to
Okay, you are referring to the last Heavenletter in the book! When the thoughts of man rise, can the world stay the same?
I really feel we need the whole context of the letter for this sentence to be understood to its fullest.
Here are a few lines:
"If no one one feared they would be robbed, would there be robbery?...Are the robber and the robbed vibrating at the same vibration? Does the one with ten locks on his front door call the robber to him? Is the robber answering a request when he robs?...Do the ones who dun for payment attract those who do not pay?...Do Human Beings on Earth call events and people to them? Is everything an interaction?...There is no pat answer that can satisfy.
"Yet, at the same time, when something strikes a chord in you, it strikes a chord. When something rubs you the wrong way, perhaps a note already exists within you that reverberates. If you fear all the time that someone will cheat you, what are you attracting?"
I think translators have a hard task sometimes, and this is one of those times.
My guess is that God is meaning: When you have a reaction, you have a reaction. When you're upset or fearful or angry,you are upset or fearful or angry. If that chord were not within us, could an outside event affect us so?
Neverthless, when something does strike us a certain way and make us unhappy, we are unhappy. Something outside has struck a chord inside us. Could an outside event strike a chord that is not within us?
If something strikes a chord within us, it's our chord that was struck.
Canim Engin, in terms of the sentence itself, I don't know another way to say it. "...when something strikes a chord in you, it strikes a chord."
When you're happy, you're happy. But the happiness is within us all along. The same with the responses we give that are not happy.
Hopefully, someone can give you a simpler answer than I did!
By the way, does everyone know that a Heaven book will now be published in Turkish? Engin is going over her translation of the book again to make sure everything is as perfect as it can be.
The book will be published in Turkey by Kuraldsi, Turkey's foremost publisher of spiritual books.
By the way, there will be more of this in the upcoming Heaven News that will be coming out soon.
Thanks, Engin.
If
Canim Gloria, thank you
Canim Gloria,
thank you indeed and I saw that its translation is quite satisfying, somehow I had managed to give this meaning:)))) Ok then.
And what about the biography, will it be the same?
loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooove
you all....
Oh, gosh, you have to get
Oh, gosh, you have to get this done fast!
Please tell me what you are thinking, canim. What do you think needs to be changed?
I do not think anything need
I do not think anything need to be changed. I just asked whether you want to add stg or not.
Because a couple of hours later I will call the pub:) and send the text.
loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooove
Engin
Canim Engin, when you say
Canim Engin, when you say biography, do you mean the little thing on the back cover?
Do I perhaps still have a few days to do it, beloved?
Yes canim, Yes
Yes canim,
Yes canim,
xxxxxxxxxx
If that chord were not within us
A perfect, simple answer and concise explanation, Querida. And for me a revelation. Thank you.
This is just not fair ...
... There is so much love here that I can hardly swim -is the teacher in the room ?
Heavenletters carried me through the tight places when I could not carry myself
Yes, how unfair! As a matter
Yes, how unfair!
As a matter of fact, we are supposed to drown in the love!
The Teacher is in the room and everywhere! But you knew that.
