Grok, in your ancient Scottish dialect, would mean "ken". Hep cats might say "dig". It comes from the Heinlein novel of forty years past, Stranger in a Strange Land.
Hah so, enightenment has arived. I had thought it was computer slang for something like parse with spent tealeaves in cup.
I suppose "Intelligent" Design (tm god,llc) could be employed to find its derivation. A few things come to mind:
grasp - devine, surmise, acertain, get around it
crock - a container, unit of measurement; figuratively, a quantity of
something distasteful of unfortunate proportions
gronk - the sound hurled by a dinasaur who has just tripped on an extra
low-hanging testicle
grog - what he uses for the next several hours for recovery
