"I feel it is a special moment in the history of our community in Bombay, for young and old alike, to expand their awareness and create new paths of light for themselves,” wrote Dr Gulrukh Bala, a week prior to the launch of her new album Healing Meditations on July 16, 2004. "As a Zarathushtrian committed to living by the power of good thoughts...I have creatively put in several unique prayers and quiet time reflections... Bearing in mind the larger consciousness of our planet, I have used the English medium of expression,” she adds.
