The word car is a shortened version of the term carriage. A carriage is a horse drawn means of transportation for people. It is made of wheels, seats, roof, brakes etc. You can make certain changes to the parts and still have a carriage the concept of a superpath is the concept of making changes to the parts with out destroying the relation between the parts to the point that you have something clearly different for instance an orange does not have seats wheels brakes etc but we can imagine increasing the size of the different parts and still have a carriage. In the same way we can consider an orange as one different consciousness from a carriage. But we can make changes to the orange to make it more like a carriage or more like a very large orange or a red orange or a sour orange or an orange that tastes like something else. This is the concept of superpath change you have a superpath change that increase the intelligence etc of the original with out loosing the uxperiencit of the original. In other words there are many superpaths version of the carriage such as the car. The car was just a carriage with a different source of power. Today we could have a carriage still with out the motor -- horse drawn but with everything else that a modern car has. Such as lights, windshield wipers, radio, dvd player, gps, heater, coolers, batteries steering wheel etc.
