Imagine an endless empty space that is pitch black. In this darkness, there is a single candle illuminating the floor. The candle's circle of enlightenment can shrink, grow, or remain constant. 

​

In this metaphor 

The candle itself is the creator.

The light emitted from the candle is its scope of observation.

The creator's scope cannot grow nor shrink without an object of observation. 

​

When the creator observes an object within its scope, that object is also the creator.
