In May 2003 Mahamandaleshwar Paramhans Swami Maheshwarananda visited Croatia where he held many different programs: several public lectures, international yoga seminar and many satsangs with disciples. Swamiji's visit received great media and public attention and culminated with the public lecture in Zagreb's Dome Of Sports. With 2500 visitors it was the largest audience in Europe ever to be present at one of Swamiji’s programs.
