Desiring 'an understanding' usually means basically wanting to get a way to set it, a sort of phrases, it is not in fact a knowing of any form, it is just a way to chat about it. One is familiar with nothing at all in pleasure, in despair there is the burden of figuring out almost everything. Otherwise, know practically nothing. Nothing else is worth being aware of, for all there is no God but me, immune to change, omnipotent only in sacrifice.
