But again the question here what is reffered to mind.
There are 5 holding aggregates, Nama-rupa, feeling, perception, Sankahara, and vinanna ( consciousnes).
Now, if contact is comming together of ( external object, your organ that processes information coming from externam object and sends signal to the brain,
consciessness associated particular properties arising).

Suppose I look outside the window andbo I see the car, which is aut to start. Immediately I can identify the particular car by its shape and/or color ( eye consciousness), sound (noise it makes), maybe touch if I go closer and touch it, maybe smell if it is old car and I cant think of taste. So bascially there are 4 different vinannas ( that form the experience of the of the car). From that imformation I can idenfity what model of the car it is, who owns it, maybe how much gasoline it has left, how many people are present in the car, where they are going and comming back, e.t.c ( this whole process of thinking and reasoning is probably citta )

Now suppose I developed great echolocation skill and I close my eyes and look at the car. Right now eyes are closed so there is no way I can see color. Still if I am good enough I would be able to identify the specific car, but because I dont see color there is large chance of mistake.

Newetheless, what I am trying to clarify for myself is what is this eye/ear/tocuch/e.t.c consciousness is. Its also a little bit confusing because: percetion of external shapes can obviously be accomplish any sensory organs, ( except mano of course).

Cant make sense of it at the moment, i will try to clarify my thoughs later.
