There is story I like about anthropologist visiting a tribe, let's say in Siberia. Hunters of the tribe came back empty handed, the deer where not where they usually were during this time of year, probably their migration disturbed by oil industry. Hunters went to seek council from the tribe's shaman. Shaman told hunters to look for the deer in another valley, hunters did as advised and came back happy, tribe would now have enough to eat for the winter. Anthropologist asked the shaman how did it know where the deer would be. Shaman answered: "Hod do you know where your hand is?"

"Psycholinguistic programming" aspects of English notions of "subject" and "understanding" are quite peculiar expressions of spatial relation of being 'below', which to my ear speaks of subjugation to hierarchic power-relation. The knowledge-hero of English culture understands from the mythical apple of knowledge dropping on his head (and giving a sore bump), while actively curious Greeks picked and took down (katalambaino) the fruit of the tree of knowledge. In our language the related spatiotemporal relation is about surrounding and center, "to be/go around"
