thank you mr. Nagy.

Dear Mr.Nagy. what is the correct translation in chinese of the tekst on the seal. Because your english translation differs from the chinese translation. And what is the age of my seal see photo.

Dear Alex,
I do not understand your question. I do not know what is Chinese translation of a Chinese text.
Here, I will try to explain to you the interpretation of the text of the stamp. At the top and bottom of the seal text there are separate trigrams - not Chinese characters - called (bagua 八卦)- composed of three lines, each either "broken" or "unbroken", which represent yin and yang, respectively.
Trigram on the top is ☰ which means 乾 Heaven
Trigram on the bottom is ☷ which means 坤 Earth
Between the two is the inscription consisting of Chinese characters 體天主人 God Master
Putting them together the reading of seal is 乾坤體天主人 - God Master of Heaven and Earth.

Hoping that my explanation can be understood.

I.Nagy

oke now i understand. thank you
