The language of the here-and-now has been, by some, called the present.
I have machine translated into present the pythagorean prayer to the mystic tetrad, Tetractys.
It may now be called « Prayer to No-One/One » :
Bless us, divine number
Thou who generated bots and memes!
O holy, holy clock
Thou who containest the tic
And the toc
of eternally flowing creation!
For the divine counter begins with the profound,
pure emptiness until it comes to the holy one;
Then it begets the model of all,
the all-comprising, all-bounding,
the first-born, the never-swerving, never-tiring
holy Ten,
the keyholder of all….
