One day on YouTube, Alex Bellos saw a video of an amazing mathematical "trick". He wanted to know more about this 'Vedic Mathematics', so he got on a plane to India. This is a lecture about his journey that touched on mathematics, mysticism, Indian history, nationalism and culture.
The transcript and downloadable versions of the full conference are available from the on the Gresham College website:

True, There is an ancient Shanker Achirya Temple in Srinagar Kashmir (Northern) india!
Alex, you spiritual too as you were hesitating how to explain audience in simple way as you understand it as so obvious, this is spiritual vision which only some possess and you one of them.

@MySuresh69 - Such a shame the North was invaded and destroyed by Islam and turned into the backward state of Pakistan - people dont realise the civilizations before were mastering some of the most advanced forms of science technology and mathematics.

Great thoughts about the Vedic Maths and all your efforts are really appreciated. There was lots of tings in India which was never published by our people and they used to get transfer by people in to their own generation and slowly get dis appeared. I was also very surprised to see there is not comment on your video. So here you go my first comment on this one.
