selecting Mr. Gandhi as their representative to this country. BUFFALO EVENING TIMES, AUG. 13, 1894
Mr. Virchand R. Gandhi, the East Indian, who representated 5,000,000 of his co-religionists at the Congress of Religions, preaches the universal brotherhood of man. He is much farther advanced in the Esoteric Philosophy than the western Theosophists, and gives far more lucid explanations of the Oriental teachings. The Hindu is decidedly the Lion of the season.

MORNING STAR, MEADVILLE, PENN. AUG. 14, 1894
Virchand Gandhi, of Bombay, India, is the picturesque figure on the grounds now, in his Oriental costume. Mr. Gandhi represented the Jainist sect at the World's Parliament of religions at Chicago last year. he is a very intelligent man, and after hearing his lecture on 'The message of India to America', one is inclined to wonder if Indian missionaries to America are not in order.
BUFFALO EXPRESS, AUG. 14, 1894
Mr. Virchand Gandhi, of India, was the platform figure in this immense gathering of interested people. Looking over the audience, it was easy to perceive that the men and women from the outside world, as well as spiritists and Cassadagans themselves, followed every word that the Hindu said with the closest attention.
