When we analyze and try to figure things out, we imply that direct knowing is unavailable to us.  We again, create struggle and suffering by acting as if clarity isn't natural and requires effort.  Clarity is the true state of your mind and your energy, it only needs to be allowed to arise.  This comes from stillness and patience and there is no substitute for knowing something.  It far outshines "figuring out" anything.
