Vilayanur Ramachandran, a Neurologist, gave an astounding talk on how our brain acts as the only bridge to believe the relational aspects of mind and matter. His series of experiments, meticulously performed and impeccably explained in this video, reveal some amazing concepts.

The video is around 20 minutes in length, so please let it download first. Press 'play' and then 'pause' to let it load fully.
