THE YOGI’S INTERPRETATION OF THE PROPHECY
A Yogi, often affiliated with the Hindu religion, designates a wise man or an ascetic who practices meditation. Their presence at the time of the appearance of the star is evoked by the renowned historian in Jaffna Mudaliyar C. Rasanayagam “Yogis in Keerimalai must have confirmed to Marignolli the story of the Magus of Ceylon.”
