Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green

grok \GRAWK\ , transitive verb slang;
1.To understand, especially in a profound and intimate way.

From Robert A. Heinlein in his book "Stranger in a Strange Land:"

Grok means to understand so thoroughly that the observer becomes a part of the observed—to merge, blend, intermarry, lose identity in group experience. It means almost everything that we mean by religion, philosophy, and science—and it means as little to us (because of our Earthly assumptions) as color means to a blind man.

It is used mainly by nerds and others who are absorbed by and have become a part of net culture.
