Remember the monk who could never penetrate the Mu koan? He spent twenty years contemplating the issue without success. He finally concluded that he was just too stupid to "get it," so he left his monastery and gave himself the job of cleaning up a local cemetary where several illustrious sages were intombed. In a sense, he just gave up trying to understand, and resigned himself to his self-imposed task. One day he was sweeping the grounds when a small pebble bounced off the bamboo fence around the cemetary. When he heard that sound, his mind collapsed like a house of cards, and he "got everything," the Mu koan and hundreds of others as well. He subsequently became a famous Zen Master.
Each body/mind is different, and although it is impossible to predict what will happen, I would be willing to bet that you will eventually find whatever it is that you want to know.
