Isn't it funny how sometimes we can only understand some ungraspable things through the use of other ungraspable things? For example, when I was thinking about √7, it hit me that it is irrational. There is an infinite amount of numbers used to fully describe this concept. Hence, we who understand things through tangible concepts can never fully understand the power of this number. Still, when you multiply this mystical thing by itself, we get a simple number - 7. An infinite being is brought to our level of understanding with a little manipulation.
What's the point? Who cares? The point is that things that may seem complex and ungraspable at first can be understood through a manipulation that is inherent to the seeminly ungraspable subject. What this means is that the manipulation cannot be something that will add more questions; Occam's razor. Multiplying √7 by itself is a manupulation that is inherent to √7, so new questions are not raised.
So, next time ya'll are thinking deeply or trying to understand something, remember that some things are naturally ungraspable to us; this is important to accept. Manipulating the subject will make it easier to understand if you are skilled with this manipulation. Create a new interaction and it may help you understand the complex.
