similar to looking at any object from one and only one point-of-view. Others may share my position and we all can talk about and describe the phenomenon, but the other points of view are real too, some so different from mine that I cannot imagine those views of the object, others require only a shift in the dimensions I currently process and I can experience the phenomenon from a new altered perspective.

A radical shift in perspective and the phenomenon could appear so entirely different from my previous view of it that I no longer recognize it as the same phenomenon.

Everything is all there, just not necessarily accessible, or more precisely, more or less accessible depending upon perspective and perception.
