There is an analogy to how differently we each understand or experience God in a classic story about three blind men and the elephant. As each of the three blind men are trying to understand exactly what the elephant is like, but experiencing different parts of the same thing.

The first blind man is feeling all over the leg of the elephant and says to the others, “It is like a strong tree.” But, the second is holding the trunk, explaining, “It is like an ever changing vine.”

Still, the third blind man is running his hands across the large body of the elephant, exclaiming, “No, it is endless, like a wide mountain.”
