I've heard that in a lucid dream, you can actually use all of your senses. However, in real life, I do not have a sense of smell, which is because of a problem with my nose and stuff. In a lucid dream, since I only can not smell because of my nose, and the brain is what creates the senses in a dream, would I be able to smell? |

I'd say so. I know someone who has no legs, he lost them over twenty years ago. However he is able to walk and run in dreams and it feels normal. |

When I say 'I see!' - I've opened not my eyes, but my mouth.
I don't think B is correct. Blind people cannot fathom "seeing" and as such, don't dream in visuals. It stands to reason that the same occurs for all other senses. If you have never smelled anything, then you can't just start smelling things. Feeling effects of a drug is dependent on having used those sense that the effects take place on. A blink person could take acid in a dream and not get the visuals but would get the mind-blast and feelings and what not. |

Blind people don't fathom seeing? There are many blind people that say they can imagine colors and features of things as such. |

Pointing to one individual to generalize a point is....innacurate in the least. |

I'm talking about senses, not random things that you can do. It's easy to imagine what walking would be like if you have touch. It's easy to imagine what shooting laser beams out your head would be like if you have any kind of imagination. But imagining something that you have no hint at, no idea where to even start at, and basically can't do simply because the mechanism for doing it is broken is just not possible. |

Yes, I could not smell since birth (although, maybe I could for the first few months of my life but I just don't remember). I have tried to imagine what smelling is like, and based on the description of "it is like tasting but with your nose" I still can't imagine what it would be like |
|
I don't think you have any idea what I'm talking about. If a blind person asks you to describe an item to you, it is purely to get the "feel" of it from their touch senses. They will not imagine any kind of object simply because they can't. They will imagine it in their hands, feeling it. If it is round, they imagine a spherical object by their touch. If it is a square, they imagine sharp edges touching their hands to get an idea. |

Can you tase? Because 90% of what we call "taste" is actualy smell so im sure you still have it. |

To try to put and end to the whole senses in dreams war this thread has started, I propose a solution: |

Sounds like you better try smelling something in a dream then, and let us know what happens. |

i think that when i'm next lucid my senses will slowly unlock, i will see things with my eyes and i will touch something which will bring my sense of touch and then my sense of smell and taste will kick in, i think its so awesome how you can make it very realistic in the dream. |
