I recently returned to Rawalpindi, Pakistan from a business trip cum religious pilgrimage to Udvada and Sanjan. Apart from shopping, I collected many happy memo- ries of Amritsar, Bombay and Udvada.
My thanks to all the Parsis and non Parsis who welcomed me and made me feel at home. I also met representatives of the Jiyo Parsi program and picked up a few new ideas which I will try to voice/ recommend if I am elected to Pakistan Parliament again.
Most importantly, I am thankful to Ahura Mazda for listening to and answering my prayers. I experienced some miracles and changes for the better in my life after returning home. No amount of thanks is enough for this.
