While practicing the phase may still be viewed by the majority as entertainment or an element of self-development at best, phase practice takes on a whole new meaning for the physically disabled. For them, the phase may be the only place where the handicaps of reality dissolve and disabled practitioners experience a range of possibility greater than the life experienced in reality.
A blind person will see again in the phase, even more clearly than seeing people do in reality. Someone who is paralyzed will be able walk, run, and also fly. A deaf person will hear the murmur of streams and the chirping of birds. For the disabled, the phase practice is a chance to discover new, incomparable worlds free of physical limitation.
Naturally, there are some nuances that must be understood. First, for example, if a person was born blind, then there is the question as to whether or not they would be able to see in the phase the same way ordinary people see. However, this issue has not been fully studied, and blind people should simply carry out their own independent research. Second, some types of disabilities can negatively affect the practice of the phase states. For example, people who have gone blind have greater difficultly catching the intermediate state between sleep and wakefulness since, unlike seeing people, they may awaken without opening their eyes to the perception of sound. Third, a purely psychological disability plays an enormous negative role. Psychologically disabled people have a whole range of specific beliefs and attitudes that may present an obstacle for them.
Whatever the individual issues, this particular area of phase applications requires additional study. It deserves significant attention because it is a valid tool for the rehabilitation of the disabled. It is workable, unique, and extremely surprising in terms of the experiences that it offers.
