    You know these steps to glory - where it is.
    Yes you had guessed it correctly.
    Yes. It is in in Chicago.

    On this day decades ago Narendranath aka Swami Vivekananda
    delivered his mighty speech which turned into internationally famous speech.

    You know the reason.

    Instead of traditional way of beginning to address the gathering “Ladies & Gentlemen” he addressed “Dear sisters & Brothers”...

    Thank you Sir. I have never seen this picture. In my recent speech at Toastmasters, I have delivered about Swami Vivekananda`s communication style mentioning this historic speech. I felt delighted to see this picture!

    Oh that is lovely message you toast master. Glad indeed.
    2. The steps are decorated colourfully with words of Swami Vivekananda speech.
    3. I trust you zoomed the picture so that words are brought to perfect focus for clear reading.
    4. If Chicago is at closer proximity you would certainly visit this hindu temple.
    Thanks & regards.
    God Bless.

    Chicago is 2000 miles far away from Los Angeles. But I wish I will pay a visit there some day.
