Your Hands Must Be Held in a Natural Position
You cannot hope to mystify your
audience
if you do not remember this: there is
nothing
up your sleeve but the will to
produce, transform,
vanish. It’s called legerdemain,
which means light touch.
It is showing something by means of
misdirection.
It is suggestion. It is power, of.
Wherever
thou go, eyes goest. It is the ghost
of belief,
back from the grave of existence. It
is, at last,
an audience under the influence of
itself.
You are nothing, nothing but the
mirror for this.
This is the trick that always, never,
works.
Do not falter. Practice. This science
depends upon
the smallest detail, the tiniest held
breath.
There will be no assistant, no one,
ever,
to hypnotize, saw in half, levitate.
There are
only the gestures that gestate these
mysteries,
infinite. Rap the cabinet. Reach into
your hat.
You will begin to understand the great power…
