I had difficulty understanding much of what you and your commentors have written, fascinating. Certainly no chance of an epiphany in those matrix pods in the photo. Reality is hidden in plain sight but not just due to our vain imaginings but the vain imaginings of others as well. We can imagine we are isolated independent beings but in reality are part of a being that is part of a larger being that is the whole, or "God." Light cannot exist without the dark, our existential reality in which we must learn to dance or else.
