Swamiji's Visit to Seville, Spain, May 2010

Many things happened in Spain for Swamiji's visit there. He had a satsang with the devotees from all parts of Spain. He spoke at the book launch for the Autobiography of a Yogi, 1946 edition, in Spanish. He also visited the incorrupt body of King Ferdinand III and the tomb of his son Alfonso X. As Yoganandaji said that he was a Spanish general who drove out the Moors from Spain. After some research, Swamiji felt perhaps Master might have been this same king, who was a general and drove out the Moors in 1248. Ferdinand III was also a saint, called "El Santo" by many. After visiting Ferdinand's tomb, Swamiji does believe Yogananda was he in a past life. Swamiji also wanted to explore the thought that he might have been Alfonso X, for there are many striking similiarities between their lives.
