    To truly understand KTQ I belive one must first have a intimate
    knowledge of the Sefer Yetzirah. For some reason I had never
    come across Aryeh Kaplan's Sefer Yetzirah and have learned
    more in the last two months than I have in ten years. Although I
    still have one or two lose ends mainly concerning conventions
    used and Tetragrammatic relationships amongst the seven
    doubles and twelve singles when set to Gra's tree. For example
    it appears that Gra attributes the following:

    Up Netzach YHV K
    Down Hod HYV P
    North Gevurah HVY G
    South Chesed YVH B
    East Tiferet VYH D
    West Yesod VHY R

    It is well explained that the Vav is the axis point and the YH-HY
    order determines direction but when placed on the tree I can see
    no logical (triadic) relation after the first letter. Also when
    applying
    the twelve singles in Tetragrammatic form Kaplan outlines the
    letter "jump" on page 200 but again no explained relation.
