As human and other living beings live in the world that is defined by space and time, we are unable to comprehend "the unconditioned" beyond samsara that have no relevance to both space and time - where both space and time have no meaning.
No wonder we keep on not understanding anything about this "unconditioned". The problem with our mode of learning is that we try to understand things, including something that is beyond our comprehension, our ability to understand. Direct experience is totally different kind of knowledge from mere understanding or mere conceptualization, and to know this "unconditioned" we need to directly experience it, not understanding it.
Even though in some schools of Buddhism masters are said to be able to "introduce" their students to this "unconditioned", in my opinion they can not really give the students the true knowledge of this "unconditioned". Only direct knowledge can give practitioners true knowledge of the "unconditioned" beyond samsara, beyond space and time.
