EXAMPLE: When we see a parked automobile, we also automatically recognize its ability to enable transportation - though the car does not move at present. This proves that the perception of one single feature (its form) makes us also aware of all the other functions of the car - i.e. its potential to reach other locations with it, to transport friends, to cause accidents, to pollute the environment, to give shelter from rain, and much more.
Yet the total number of functions a car can fulfill is limited. An automobile that would transform into an elephant does not fit the range of all acceptable variations. Even if we would witness such a transmutation, our consciousness would filter this event out and would refuse to accept it as a valid building block of our reality.42
That we presently do not consciously perceive all the features of the elements involved in an event or object, is due to karmas that block this part of our perception: - our own preconceptions, prejudices, ideas and emotions (karma) close off parts of reality from us.
Apart from the 'visible' and the 'potential functions of an object or event we also perceive why these are brought to our attention. We consciously or subconsciously sense what purpose a situation or object has in our life and to what degree they are capable of achieving this task.
We perceive this, - irrespective if we accept this subtle perception or not, - irrespective if we like our perception, - and also irrespective if we react to this perception or not. Our consciousness impartially takes in the entire content, meaning and purpose of the manifested element(s). It is solely our own decision how much of this splendid abundance of information we use for our life and development.
42 We would probably regard this as a singular event, as a distortion of
our sense-perception or as a magic trick. But we certainly would not assume that all cars might change into elephants at any time.
