hi there, well i dont question the fact that blind men dream or can have lucid dreams.. its just interesting for me how a blind man would act if he was lucid in his dreams considering he is blind from birth.. |

and you can do anything in a dream. Why not gain sight if your blind? |

I imagine blind people can see perfectly well in dreams because they do not use their eyes in their dreams, they obviously would have completely different dreams from someone with sight as they have a different way of percieving things. |

with all due respect, a man that is blind from birth can't gain sight in his dreams. he doesnt even know what sight is (try to imagine a color you havn't seen before - you can't! same here, as for the question if a blind man sees total blackness or some random colors i can't answer, and even if he was blind from the age of 3 (for example) i think his dreams would've become very very limited with sights experiences (if at all) because sight isn't related to his current lifestyle and survival instincts. dream material is stuff you experience in reality. blind man's world is based on touch if he can't touch/hear/smell something it doesnt exist. just like we look at a pertty girl they need to touch her (in order to "look at her) if we see a mountain in the distance they wouldn't be aware of it... they wouldn't even be able to say "oh there's a mountain i'm going to walk towards it" because it makes no sound or creates no smell.. the world of the blind man is very limited. so are his dreams. i'm sure there is some compensation, but they dream in touch/hear/smell. |

Yes, idont think blind people can gain sight in dreams... But i think that SIGHT is strongest in our dreams... I mean we dont remember sounds as good as sight... |

I think they could see, I don't know about seeing colours but I think they could see in their own way. I don't think we can say if they do or not until an actual blind person comes into here and tells us. |
|
I don't think they can see. However, I'm sure they can have lucid dreams. |
|
No that I think of it I don't know if they could see. The could dream and be seeing in what they think as seeing but really it would be way different to the real world. Just my opinion. |
|
i see, but what if they happen to know directions to a place, and they previously had sight, they would love to see it, so they went and followed the directions, and saw the place they've longed to see for so long. |
|
i think about the things i'm trying to solve, and after a while, CHA-CHING!!! i've got an idea, i run it by people who work on it too, and you know what happens when i'm right? the same thing that happens to everyone else! and if negative, i find a nother idea. |

If I hadn't made me
I'd be more inclined to bow
Powers that be would have swallowed me up
But that's more than I can allow...
Don't worry truthbearer gave me the same lecture. Although he is right. |

i admit, those two seperet were kinda stupid, but what about my idea? what say the people? |
|
Pad foot your idea sounds logical but i don't think it was well thought up. |

In your dreams, people can dream about things they wish were different in real life (i.e. being in a wheelchair, and suddenly your legs start to work). I would think a person, blind from birth would dream that he had sight... Sight in his dream would definately have to be different from what we see in real life, but nonetheless, it would be THE real thing to him in his dream. I would only be able to ponder what things would LOOK like to a person who has never seen anything. |

lets put it this way... where do these senses come from? If the senses you have in a dream come from the parts of the brain responsible for the intake of those senses, then what happens when that part of the brain isn't functioning? When a man his blind, there are two ways that he can be blind; either the part of the brain responsible for sight doesn't work properly, or his eyes don't work properly. If the part of the brain responsible for sight (I can't remember the specific section) isn't functioning, then there is no way for him to recreate the sense of sight, unless those senses are directly coming from past memory, or the *supposed* creative section of your brain. |
