Close your eyes and think about what you'd look like not seeing yourself!!?

I have often wondered that myself. If a person has
been blind since birth then what can they dream about if they have never "seen" anything? I suspect
that their concept of objects are what their
fingers tell them. Add to that the sounds, smells,
and taste then they might have very different
dreams from us. I'm sure they must have dreams that
are based on emotional experiences as well. Yes,I
believe that the blind do dream but more intensely.

I have asked blind people about their dreams their dreams are mostly auditory. Sometimes their dreams picture the world by how they think it may look like. Despite the fact that their blind their brain still has the Occipital lobe which interprets vision so they are still able to imagine what vision looks like. Also their dreams are less visual and are more auditory consisting of abstract thoughts and imagined scenerios without the visuals or with their "Made Up Visuals"

All do have dreams - ideas
If the person is born blind he wont have the stored immages which he associate with the ideas he have - he may hear sounds - and feel - all the sensations - which we can feel
If the have ligh perseption the can see the light or flashed or clour depending on it
The are also just like us with all desires and wished and goals - some times more than what we dare to dream

all physically challenged ppl can dream. dreams r the thoughts, imagination of one's mind that a person think, do, feel in the whole day. a blind can offcourse dream as for dreams they dont require eyes. only the thought and the feeling is important.eyes r the external means of viewing the world . they cannot see the internal imagination of a person which dreams can...

If blind from birth, what would they see during dream state? If they've never seen a tree, what would it look like while they are dreaming? I would assume that your statement would be correct.

yes, they do dream... their dreams just lack sight, but the other senses make up for what they lack in sight... just close your eyes for a while and mulitply those sounds and stuff by about 6 times and that wound be like what a blind person dreams....

Everyone dreams during rapid eye movement, (R.E.M.) a deep phase of sleep that allows the brain to rest. Without that, we would all lose our ability to reason and think cohesively. In other words we would be insane.

absolutely. close your eyes and daydream.....they see the same thing because neither of you are looking at those dreams through eyes. That which is looking at those dreams is you - the spiritual being.
