Think about it. The more you learned about your brain the more complex it would become. Also I’m not sure we have enough capacity to reflect on ourselves by processing everything. Think about the massive complexity of every connection. Could someone actually process that or are we limited by ourselves?
He who truly knows, knows that he knows not
Or
The more you know, the more you realize you don’t know.
But also, understanding that about yourself doesn’t take more knowledge or intelligence than you currently have. As another user (darkdarkhouse)^ posted, you can understand how the brain works and still not have all the knowledge in the world (hard drive with a map/directory of the hard drive on it).
