I think reason is a light/ocean/tree/garden and that it is both unified and complex. Language makes it complex but it's reality is one and indivisible.
Reason includes logic, morality, praise, honor, and value.
When you try to apply it to all sorts of things, it is divisible and complex.
When you reflect upon it's nature it's a vast ocean that is a light. It is a upside down tree that is rooted deep in unity but branches out in complexity.
