Greek had no letter h: a rough breathing over an initial vowel or diphthong – – indicates that the word was pronounced with an initial h, and a smooth breathing – – indicates the absence of an h, but this has since disappeared in speech, and Modern Greek omits the breathings.
The letter rho () at the start of a word always had the rough breathing – – and is transliterated rh.
The Greek words are shown in polytonic orthography, in other words showing the breathings and the fuller range of accents, as used in Ancient Greek.

Metaphysics (Greek words meta = after/beyond and physics = nature) is a branch of philosophy concerned with the study of "first principles" and "being" (ontology).
Esotericism and occultism, in their many forms, are not so much concerned with inquiries into first principles or the nature of being, though they do tend to proceed on the metaphysical assumption that all being is "one".
The ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle produced a number of works which together were called the Physics.
