The essential truth has not boundaries. Essence has no limit. There is limit where there is hamshacha or some kind of presentation.
An hamshacha/download has an intent – it comes with the element that can be presented to the body, and thus it has a limit.
Nefesh is not limited and knows only Him.
Koach ha sechel has 2 elements. A topic that is infinite and a presenter (the koach itself) that is null to the topic and thus we say that it too it infinite.
Giluim sichliim – revelations on the leve of mind – come where there is a mind sensitivity. Without this they cannot be revealed. “the basis of chochmah is to know that there is a first being” says the Rambam. Why? Why not have sechel with proofs without this premise? Isn't empirical proof sufficient?
But we say, no, there has to be acknowledgment of the First Being.
Something falls when dropped is not sechel. It is a physical fact. Where is sechel? It is the statement, that “the basic state of the world is darkness and things tend downward – this is a principal fact not a physical fact – it is a statement of what the world stand for and what He is creating the world for. Without this there is no significance to gravity.
To know the world from a physical level is to know it like an animal. To know the world like a human being then sechel is the basis.
