Our beloved Gurudev, Mahamandaleshwar Vishwaguru Paramhans Sri Swami Maheshwaranandaji began his Croatian Tour on May 5th 2004. He arrived in Zagreb, the capital of Croatia, accompanied by his youngest disciple, Mahayogi Swami Avatar Puriji. This was going to be an eventful visit, especially marked by the 20th anniversary of YIDL in Croatia and its accompanying activities.

On Friday 14 May 2004, the Divine Light of Mahaprabhuji was brought to London, England at the opening ceremony of the newest "Yoga in Daily Life" Centre, Sri Swami Madhavanandaji Ashram, in Queens Park – with Swamiji reminding us that this was at last fulfilling a prophecy made many years ago.

From June 4 - 7th 2004, Mahamandaleshwar Paramhans Swami Maheshwaranandaji payed his first visit to Ex-Soviet State Ukraine. The visit was a great success, Swamiji found there a large audience eager to learn about yoga and the wisdom of healthy and peaceful living. Many high representatives of medical, cultural and political institutions welcomed Swamiji and expressed their readiness for further cooperation.

Several Spanish Embassies have sent letters of gratitude acknowledging expressions of sympathy they received from the "Yoga in Daily Life" community. Messages of condolence and letters of support for the people of Madrid, following the bomb attack on March 11 2004, were warmly accepted and appreciated.
