Tetragrammaton And Yhvh Options

Tetragrammaton and YHVH (yod heh vau heh) . . . .

I'm to understand that the reference "Tetragrammaton" and "YHVH" aren't necassarily the same thing.

Tetragrammaton is a greek word referring (occult-wise) to the four principal elemental components of the Divine Body
YHVH are the four-fold power of the body of the divine (GOD) in any particular manifest aspect. (a semetic/hebrew theological origin)

Is that right . . . the four-fold YaHoWaH and the (nearly barbarous name) Tetragrammaton aren't necassarily referring the the exact same concept ?

(this make sense in light of the Triangle of Art . . . though I'm not using the archangelic binding/controlling formula, only the three greek barbarous names of manifestation)

Yes . . . I think I've heard something about the jews reserving the use of YHVH.
Although I'm pretty sure that was primarily verbal use that ADNI was one of the words they substatuted for it, and that they wrote YHVH all over the place.
As well, I'm almost positive that the greek concept of the four elements was either pre-platonic or Platonic (4th cent BC) and hellenistic period was 3rd-1st cent BC . . . . AND, I don't think that the Greek concept of the body-divine was only something they barrowed from that tiny little group of semetic semi-nomadic farmers . . .
We are, of course, agreed that Greece had a pretty thriving religious and magickal tradition all on its own without having to depend on Hebraic people . . . right.
(a voice of absolute conviction isn't that convincing)

Since he is used in the triangle of art in the Tetragrammaton form i supose that YHVH being God's name - the most powerfull wouldn't allow the appearance of an evil spirit...so is replaced with the Teragrammaton...

I'm not really sure who the "he" is that your referring to. Certainly YHVH isn't the only god . . . .?

The barbarous names really have nothing to do with allowing or disallowing "evil spirits".

And thats specifically one of the issues here . . . I'ts not YHVH used in the Triangle formula. Its specifically not referring to that four-fold type of aspect of the semetic God. Its the four-element spiritual body that the Triangle formula calls on . . . Which does allow for "evil" spirits to appear.
(Erosc, maybe your not very familiar with this whole triangle thingy . . . its one of the 'tools' used in some older grimiores, like Lemegaton, as and aid and boundry for calling spirits. Particularly demons and evil spirits.)

And in coordination with the other three barbarous words (in the traditional triangle formula) its clearly not referring to a deity inparticular, but to one of three component (in a particular priority) for spiritual manifestation.

(anytime someone says "what I'm presenting is the only reality", makes me whince for the sake of the others that read that and might be inclined to believe it .... )
