Inside a servlet or script you can do whatever you want - you are not
restricted to the currentNode you get. For example, you can
- iterate over the child nodes and list them
- use the resource resolver to get any node in the repository, do queries etc.
- you can also get the JCR session
(resourceResolver.adaptTo(Session.class)) directly, if you know you
only work on the JCR repository - this gives you complete access to
the JCR API
- use sling.include() to include a different path (as Bertrand noted already)
