We each are essentially a point within overall reality around which a processor and interface is formed.
Different configurations and position within overall reality allow for different capabilities and opportunities to interface on different levels.
Humans overcome their limitations by creating external tools, but it is not impossible for the capabilities of some of those tools to be made inherent in the design of a body.
Simple dental work can make someone capable of hearing radio broadcasts...
One person was born with the part of the brain which does math connected to the part which processes visual information at extreme speeds -making them a human supercomputer...
Some animals shape-shift... give off light...
The possibilities may be endless.
Imagine designing everything about your own body. I'd start with a full head of hair, but I do need help with math.
(I was thinking that God would need to be the point around which processing and interface originally formed -moving from greatest possible simplicity to complexity -self and environment as one and becoming more in tandem. Being all-present, all-powerful and all-knowing... even the definition of "time"... would not mean much in more simple configurations, but that position would grant those powers. Such a God could not be responsible for the fact that it existed and was basically capable -but could be personally responsible for all else once true decision-making was possible. As for self-awareness... it is a very important step which makes many new things possible, but it is basically considering one's self as if an observer -which would originally be everything becoming able to turn and look back on itself -understand itself -model itself in memory, etc. -which, again, would not mean as much in simple configurations.)
