It sounds like many of us agree: the experience of qualia is a real physical phenomenon. One that occurs in our brain somehow and is incommunicable because we don't mutually observe what happens in each other's brains. (Or even our own except in a limited way.)
So what's the other point of view? Why do dualists want to insist that there is a non-physical aspect to qualia?
