Part 4 The Hidden Side of the Brain

We begin by exploring the astounding accomplishments of individuals with Autistic Savant Syndrome and Asperger’s. Their unique and incredible talents demonstrate that our brains are capable of so much more than we utilize. Exploring the vast and unfathomable range of possibilities hidden within the brain, we criss-cross the globe in search of the answers. From our initial demonstrations of the Savants, to the rituals of an African shaman and trances of indigenous peoples, and Pentecostal Christians, we explore altered states of consciousness.
