Erik, The term shes sgrib seems to have two connotations:

1. obstruction to omniscience (is the shes bya here referring to "what is to be known", i.e., omniscience?)

2. cognitive obscuration (is the shes bya here referring to cognition and thus taken in a negative sense?)

I've always been puzzled by this.

Thanks, --Gerry
