answer:I think I see what you’re getting at. Let me see. By looking at the smaller pieces of our own perceivable world, can we or can we not intuit, decipher, or decode an element, ingredient, or an entire recipe which exists outside of our perceivable world. Basically: If I examine the flour, can I tell that it is actually part of a pancake. To a very small extent I think you can. There are patterns that emerge when you examine or research anything in great detail. By enlarging, snip snipping with some scissors and superimposing these patterns onto a hypothetical bigger picture, I think it is conceivable that we could draw some conclusions. However, without actually taking a bite out of the big piece of pie with some hard scientific data, it all becomes a bit moot.
