Dear friends on the path toward enlightenment and a correct understanding of the foundations of the occult sciences. After this greeting: I hope we can explore together the essence of your ideas and the nature of interaction in the occult world with regard to place—what is the place from which you operate, and what form does your seclusion take? Do you create protective circles, and to what extent are they effective? What names do you use to shield these circles, and how many circles are there? And why a circle? Do pyramidal shapes and directional squares serve as a form of protection and approximation, similar to the Mandel of Presence and its form? As for me, the shapes vary from one form to another.
The circles in Eastern sciences, as adopted by the Haranians and the advanced Arabs from the earliest times, number seven; they ward off the seventy evil spirits. Each circle has specific names related to writing, protection, and recitation throughout the entire circumference of the circle up to the point of protection, the direction of which is determined by the season, month, day, and nature of the entity. Some have emphasized the necessity of writing the names of the locks and barriers on a pure object, erasing them, and sprinkling water to protect against the evil of the “Ghawarun” or “Ghawasun” in the earth, for they may assassinate the Sufi from beneath the ground. Others have stipulated that the circle must also have a roof fortified with various types of The fortifications that function and have guardians protect those who deal with secrets; and there are those who have said that Al-Mandal is the most faithful, so he made his door face entirely toward the east and his exit toward the north, placing the incense burner to his right and the carrier in front of him, and positioning his seat opposite the direction from which the matter he is about to address arises, This approach has drawn the attention of many masters of esoteric knowledge who are well-versed in Eastern sciences and Indian astrology. It was advocated by Tamtam al-Hindi, Abdullah al-Kufi, al-Kindi, and al-Razi, who compiled the fundamentals and arts of these disciplines, and was followed by his student al-Kashnawi in his major treatise, The Hidden Secret in the Rising of the Sun, Moon, and Stars.Al-Buni, in his collections, pointed out that circles and squares = “al-Mandal.” He also noted that the presence of the spirit is more easily achieved in pyramidal shapes, especially if they correspond to the four Pharaonic directions, taking into account the proportions—which are among the most precise secrets of that science. The Pharaohs did not build those pyramids in vain… Some have said that one should inscribe the circles onto paper or leather, write them down, and carry them after the prescribed period has elapsed and signs of the spirits’ presence within those circles have appeared during seclusion. This grants the student of this science indifference to places and freedom from fear of spirits or demons, whatever they may be, because he recites the incantation… and his assistants hear him.
I hope the new translator, deepl.com, has translated the article well. I look forward to your opinions and feedback so we can have a scientific discussion from which everyone emerges with the light of knowledge and the strength of certainty. Thank you all in advance.

Hello, the formatting of the post is difficult to read without line breaks.

what is the place from which you operate

anywhere :)

and what form does your seclusion take?

I have a prayer space, with books, a dais, windows, but my practice is not dependent on solitude.


Do you create protective circles, and to what extent are they effective?


I don't because the success or failure of constructing any protective charm is a function of the caster's disposition. The charm is a reliable means of conjuring the necessary state of mind-and-heart which in turn cultivates repellant from all directions and dimensions, with one and only one exception, from within. With practice or innate talent one can reliably produce the same conditions in the heart-and-mind without the need for this or that.

What names do you use to shield

"Tetragrammaton >>> within >>> Adonai" and "Shalom"

The mental-emotive construct in the first is the union of "The-Eternal-One" within "The-Master-of-the-World".
  1. Yud >>> within >>> Alef
  2. Hei >>> within >>> Dalet
  3. Vav >>> within >>> Nun
  4. Hei >>> within >>> Yud
The mental-emotive construct for the second is the union of the 3 letters which means "peacefully-completing".
  1. Shin is fire and ascension
  2. Lamed is conjunctive above-and-beyond
  3. Mem is pouring down benevolence
  • Fire which is being united with Water in a manner which is Above-and-Beyond such neither the Fire nor the Water are consumed.

And why a circle?

While the caster is constructing a perfect circle, their attacker cannot find a purchase point, a weakness within their target's psyche, in theory, if the caster is able to concentrate and hold to that state of mind-and-heart. The circle is ideal because other shapes have natural weak points which are very difficult to deny.


Do pyramidal shapes and directional squares serve as a form of protection and approximation, similar to the Mandel of Presence and its form?

Alternatives, yes, there are triangles, pyramids, pentagrams, and hexagonal prisms in use for similar purposes. Layering symbols with harmonious attributes ( ** in the caster's heart-and-mind ** ) makes the charm more potent because the caster's attention to detail cultivates longer durations without gaps of focus and concertation which are openings for an attack.
