There is a great secret hidden in a name, be it the name of a person or a thing and its formed in relation to the past, present and future conditions of its object. The knowledge of everything rests on first knowing its name, and knowledge is not complete which is devoid of name. All blessings and benefits derived from earth or heaven are gained by mastery which depends upon knowledge, knowledge depending upon name. Man without the knowledge of the name of a thing is ignorant, and the one who is ignorant is powerless, for man has no hold over anything of which he has no knowledge. The reason of man's greatness is the scope of the knowledge with which he if gifted, all the mystery of which lies in his recognition of the differences between things and beings.
Every name reveals to the seer the past, present, and the future of that which it covers.
Name is not only significant of form but of character as well. The meaning of name plays an important part in man's life, and the sound, the vowels in the name, the rhythm, number, and nature of the letters which compose it, as well as the root from which it is derived and the effect which it produces, all disclose their secret to the seer. The meaning of a name has great influence upon its possessor as well as upon others. From the sound of the letters and the word they compose the mystic can understand much about the character and fate of a person. It plainly teaches you that all who had the name of the devil went down with the devil.
