Therefore, this translational work is based on a balanced approach, seeking to achieve the greatest possible fidelity to the original text while considering the structural and semantic differences between the two languages.

In some instances, this necessitated the selection of approximate linguistic equivalents or the rephrasing of certain structures to preserve the general meaning, without claiming to transfer all its semantic layers perfectly. The translator acknowledges that some differences in meaning or nuance are a natural result of human endeavor in dealing with texts of such high epistemological and spiritual weight.

It should also be noted that this translation does not aim to provide a final interpretative reading of the texts, nor to resolve the hermeneutical issues associated with them. Rather, it seeks to make them available to the reader who is not a specialist in the original language, enabling them to view these texts within a disciplined scientific framework. Returning to the original text and its commentaries remains necessary for anyone wishing to delve deeper into its contents and explore its doctrinal and esoteric dimensions more precisely.
