Avra says, "Music is more an art for me than entertainment, and hence I wanted to create something that would be intricate and musically challenging, at the same time quite contemplative for the listeners. Hence, the idea has developed to conceive a compilation of a few compositions that are based on unconventional rhythmic patterns with a common theme of acknowledging Mother Nature and its creators, which straightaway touches your heart and your mind and triggers a spiritual awakening.
