Reality is like a picture.  It has ***countless parts.***  We can unwittingly ***focus on only a few pixels of reality.***  In so doing, we ***perceive*** reality based ***only*** on those pixels.  Lets pretend this picture of the sunset is the extent of reality.

Alike to focusing on only a few pixels of the picture of the sunset, we may be drawn to conclude ***the picture is red*** because ***all we see is a small portion of the picture.***

Then, when someone else comes along who focused on another section of the picture, ***they will argue that the picture is blue.***

Let's say that we have invested a lot of time and energy in concluding that the picture is ***red*** or ***blue***, so we have gotten ***emotionally attached to our perception of the picture.***

*"No!*  It is red!"  
 "What are you talking about?  *It is blue!*"

***A fight erupts.***

Someone else was focused on the clouds:

They tend to agree that reality is ***red*** but don't quite see the same version of reality as the the first "red" viewer.

Another person focuses on the water:

To them, they agree that reality is blue but, again, don't quite see the same version of reality as the first "blue" viewer.

Now, "red" and "blue" become two separate sides, with two on each side.  Within each side though, there is still a feud regarding the specifics of the "red" or "blue" reality.

The second blue reality perceiver claims "Reality is wavey!"  While the first argues "it is smooth!"  They have bonded in agreement that reality is "blue", but still disagree on various aspects.

***This is exactly how we function.***

When we only look at ***part of the picture of reality***, we ***limit our perception of the overall picture of reality.***  Even seeing this whole sunset and saying "ah-ha!  *That* is reality; A sunset!"  Would be ***still limiting the perception of reality.***  As we know, there is ***much more*** to reality than a sunset. 

In fact, ***there is no end to reality.***  If we keep ***zooming outward***, we can see more, and more, and more of the picture until we grasp that ***there is no end to it all; it is* infinite.**  

This ***requires*** actually taking the time to ***look*** at as many ***pixels*** of the infinite picture as possible.  Further, if we just glance at them ***the image lacks resolution.***  So, ***we need to give them sufficient attention to gain clarity to see the full depth of reality.***  Additionally, if we look only at certain parts, ***the image is out of focus.***  But if we pull back and see it all, then we see reality for what it is: ***God.***  There is nothing but God, The All, The Unlimited, The Infinite.  ***All is One and One is All***.  

***That*** is *The Simple Reality.*
