"As I walk, I can sense the obstacles in my way, like a wall,
car or person. There is a 'shadow-like-thing' feeling that tells
me to avoid these obstacles," said Kadir, who became blind at
the age of seven after a high fever. This "shadow-like-thing"
feeling is often termed as "sixth sense" or extra sense. And the
blind appear to use it to ___1___
for the loss of sight. No doubt the white cane acts as the "eye"
for the blind, but the things that cannot be reached by the cane
are felt with he sixth sense. The
___2___ explain the
"shadow-like-thing" feeling as auras or a sort of magnetic
neutralizing field around the bodies -- human, animal, plant as
well as ___3___ objects. All
bodies are electrical in nature and that is why they have auras
around them. The strength of the magnetic energy in the human
body varies from person to person depending on the state of his ___4___
and the state of his psychic or inner self. A physically and
mentally healthy person who is also physically developed has a
strong aura. The auras protect the body from the harm of
radiation and electrical beams coming from the radios,
television, radars and other such things.
The blind slowly learn how to avoid bumping into obstacles in
their way by sensing their auras. Everything has auras ___5___
of them. So when a blind person stands in front of a door, he
can sense the doorway by the vibrations coming from the wooden
door and the vibrations coming from the ___6___.
The blind person can tell the metal door knob from the wood of
the door because they have different auras.
The blind can also identify things by touching them with
their fingers. For instance, the blind ___7___
the denominations of currency notes through feeling and
recognizing their size. ___8___,
the blind person gradually improves his sense of feeling so that
it does not ___9___
him very much. However, the blind cannot depend too much on
touching things with their fingers and feet or they ___10___.
Therefore, they have to depend on sensitivity of feeling by
means of the vibrations coming from things. |
