Makes me wonder if this could be true? Maybe it is because we are not actually using our eyes?
Interesting thought, not actually using our eyes. What do they do anyway? Detected wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation, the fields themselves just being projections of higher dimensional objects. It's just a reconstruction/interpretation.
I think we can all read in our dreams, just that we forget. The memory thing is bugging the heck out of me now. Why can't we remember? Without getting all philosophical, there must be some processes involved.
I just had a dream, I was doing math, solved something and I thought "neat this is exactly what I needed for work" woke up and took a leak and it's all gone, within 30seconds it's gone. I couldn't tell you what it was about. Just the general theme is left.
This is why I was obsessed with drawing pictures and journaling a while ago. We don't forget our dreams because it gets blocked out or because we don't want to or whatever. There is something else at play, remembering everything in detail would be super beneficial.
And why is the 'esoteric' dreams remembered in super detail? Like wtf, it appears the same as ordinary dreams, but you can remember infinite details
