Grok means to understand so thorughly that the observer becomes part of the observred-to merge, blend, intermarry, lose identity in group experience. It means almost everything that we mean by religion, philosophy, and science-and it means as little to us (because of our human assumptions) as color means to a blind man.
The Oxford English Dictionary defines grok as,"To understand intuitively or by empathy; to establish rapport with" and "to empathize or communicate sympathetically (with); also, to experience enjoyment." Other forms of the word include "groks" (present or third person singular), "grokked" (past) "grokking" (present)
The Oxford English Dictionary will have to wait till grokking is filled,
because that is just a small part of the understanding.
In an ideolgical context, a "grokked" concept becomes part of the person who contributes to it's evolution by improving the doctrine, perpetuating the myth, espousing the belief, adding detail to the social plan, refining the IDEA or proofing the theory.
Grok=two entities can combine to create a new reality greater than the sum of it's parts. "The water becomes part of the drinker, and the drinker part of the water" Both GROK each other. Things that once had separate realities become entangled in the same experiences, goals, history, and purpose.
Hard for "SHEEPLE" to understand because of their assumption of a singular reality.
LOOK IT UP! DON"T TAKE ANYONES WORD FOR ANYTHING. (although I'm incapable of lying)
I will tell you like I tell my children, "I AM THE ONLY PERSON THAT WILL ALWAYS BE TRUTHFUL"!
(if I grok)
