On the limits of understanding 3
Fragments from imaginary dialogues
“I don’t know why he did it. It’s so out of character for him.”
“I’d say it’s out of depth on your part narrowing human ‘character’ to that which reveals itself to outward examination, and to your necessarily limited experience.
Trying to understand another human being is like trying to catch the river in a jar.“
“Are you saying I shouldn’t even make the attempt?”
“Making the attempt despite the futility of it is what makes the Game beautiful.
What I’m saying is that how you do it matters.
Do it in the spirit of Humility.
Do it while keeping the limits of understanding [<link; medium read] constantly in mind.
Try to understand the Process.
But, more importantly, remember to appreciate them as the Process.”
