https://vedabase.io/en/library/sb/10/1/4/ here's the verse, of course in typical chaitanya fashion it translates epithets of Sri Krishna as "the supreme personality of Godhead", but uttamasloka means "He of whom the highest slokas (a form of verse) are uttered", aka the subject of beautiful poetry, aka He of great reknown

@georgia what do you think of kagi's translation?
Replying to @georgia@netzsphaere.xyz
@lain paśughna is the word used, it means both killing animals and killing oneself
Replying to @georgia@netzsphaere.xyz
@lain although i think killer of animals is the literal meaning, especially killing cattle
@lain shit, how much for this service.

@mischievoustomato @georgia Disseminated by elite thought leaders fundamentally divested of terrestrial ambition, this transcendent narrative functions as an unparalleled existential panacea, optimizing both auditory and cognitive resonance. What caliber of stakeholder would proactively disengage from the ongoing articulation of the Supreme Entity's core values, save for the most staggeringly myopic and self-sabotaging of organizational actors? || 4 ||
@lain@lain.com@mischievoustomato@tsundere.love the linkedin version captured something about the meaning that the literal translation didn't, which is that a butcher of animals is meant to also mean someone who kills themselves/the Self ie someone who acts against their own interests and "kills" the divinity within them

@georgia kagi is doing llm translations, so you can always ask for more nuance / more literal translations, background info etc.
