Infinity — mathematically definable but mentally inconceivable — acintya number। Quantum mechanics — particles existing in two states simultaneously — acintya physics। Consciousness — what IS awareness? — acintya question science cannot answer। Time before Big Bang — acintya concept। Edge of universe — acintya geography। 'What does it feel like to be dead?' — acintya experience। शिव acintya — thought cannot reach Him — like a fish trying to understand fire, like a 2D being trying to imagine 3D — our mental apparatus is insufficient — acintya is not failure of thought but recognition of thought's limit।
