      blind people

      if the brain doesn't know the difference between what it sees and what it remembers, then we're creating reality all the time, whether we're asleep or awake. i'm assuming the brain came before the eyes in the development of beings. as did other senses.

      since all of these senses are present in dreams, does this mean that blind people are also blind in their dreams?

      I'm pretty sure they are, but it's also likely that many blind people do have visualisation skills, just not as we know them. And they're probably more developed than sighted people's, cause they don't have their outer world to get in the way.

      It depends if they were blind at birth or at a later point. I'm sure they're dreams are as real as thier reality is, as our dreams are to ours.

      I have heard from several sources that blind people are not able to see in their dreams if they are blind at birth. If they went blind later in life and still remember what seeing is like, then they will be able to see in their dreams.

      I can't guarantee it is true, though.
