RJ ... you have raised the bar with that one.

It's true. You don't 'see' anything with your eyes, because sight occurs in the mind.

Not a lot of sight occurs in the mind without eyes.

This has been proven by people born blind who in later life attain sight.

He may mean that the mind interprets the signals that the brain receives from the eyes in order to "see". Have you ever seen anything in your dreams and have your eyes closed?

You forgot the EYES. Wolfgang59 needs help on understanding EYES. Help him out.

The body includes the eyes.

Although I did watch a fascinating documentary recently about a blind-since-birth guy who is able to ride around on a bicycle thanks to a kind of 'sonic radar', similar to bat clicks which he does. Scans show he uses the visual cortex extensively and effectively 'sees' his surroundings. He was even able to judge surface textures of objects such as trees. Remarkable.

I can't see outside without looking through a window, so does this mean the window 'sees'?

Others have been taught by Kish - (google him) and hundreds can do it.

I know that, but you left them out of the body systems you mentioned. Doesn't the Vedas know anything about the eyes?
