" Whatever it was, it seemed to be impossible that it could be sleight of hand merely. From whence could he have got such large quantities of things? Well, I saw many things like that. Going about India you find hundreds of similar things in different places. These are in every country. Even in this country you will find some such wonderful things.

Imitation must be of something substantially true. ____________________ __________ Today we continue a lecture called THE POWERS OF THE MIND Delivered at Los Angeles, California, January 8, 1900 This is a part of a daily study of the lectures and writings of Swami Vivekananda.
