Healing light at the Indian Embassy

CELEBRATING HOPE
On October 3, Washington author Alexandra Villard de Borchgrave and numerous VIP guests celebrated her recent publication “Healing Light: Thirty Messages of Love, Hope and Courage” at the residence of Indian Ambassador Ronen Sen.

SHE HAD A DREAM
“On the second anniversary of the September 11 tragedy,” Mrs. de Borchgrave stated, “I was inspired by the children going to Ground Zero. Two days later, I woke up with these poems in my head.” The book is extravagantly adorned with Indian-themed Mogal paintings from the private collections of major museums and a forward by Boutros Boutros-Ghali.

DINING IN SYLE
Secretaries of Defense William S. Cohen and Frank Carlucci, and former National Security Advisor Zbigniew Brzezinski were among those spotted congratulating the author and enjoying traditional Indian fare.
