I think it is fundamental to understand that Reason only deals with the known, if it can't "discover" the known in the unknown, it ignores it.
The Nagual is that part of us that is perfectly at home with the unknown because it is also unknown. The idea that there could be such a thing as experiencing
complete mystery with a totally unknown self, and have it function seamlessly, is not one that Reason was built for. So, when it comes to inorganic beings,
only the nagual side of us can deal with them and not be affected by their infinitely unknown presence. One thing to remember though, is that the unknowable
is what we can't process with either Reason or the Nagual, it can't be experienced at all.
