I loved that photo, what a simple way to explain such a complicated issue. And you have certainly made a very good attempt to explain this wordless knowledge.
I wonder if you have read Eckhart Tolle's books? I happened to read his book way back in 2008 for the first time and i did understand a lot of things on an intellectual level. But it was only recently, in the past 2-3 years that I've cone know the truth that he was trying to share in it. I had to go through hell before i could know the truth of these things but well, as Rumi wrote, you have to die before you die to really get to know it.
