Aren't we discussing the difference between the female and the male approach to understanding something? That is, an analytical approach versus an intuitive one? In this instance I doubt the two will have any correspondence.
The primary problem with the intuitive approach is that too often those who take that approach claim their findings are incapable of being put into words with the excuse that one must experience the thing, then they will "know". I prefer to look directly at what don Juan was doing and teaching. It either stands up to scrutiny, or it doesn't.
