“Kundalini means, according to Zeena ‘She Who is Hidden,’ and points to the dormant goddess in every human being’s body. While the kundalini force is found in muladharachakra, she hypnotizes humans, like maya herself, and renders them slaves to the illusory. Kundalini can only awaken people if she travels up along the spine.' --About Zeena Schreck by Malin Fitger 'Contemporary notions of Kundalini, its background and role within new Western religiosity,' University of Stockholm, 2004”

“Kunhamina’s way to the madrassa lay through a patch of woodland, where a clump of Arasu trees shed their flowers over the footpath. That day it looked as if the trees had rained flowers; Kunhamina stood admiring the floral carpet, when a flock of foraging peafowl swooped down around her.

When she was done with the last bit, she rubbed her palms clean and turned to go. But the crested king-fowl hopped behind her for more. ‘Finished, Peacock-Saar!’ she said. The bird chased her and pecked her on the calf. It hurt and bled a little, but she was jubilant, she had something to tell them at the madrassa; she had been pecked by a real peacock! She told Kholusu and Noorjehan.”

“Kunt u me niet een onderwerp voor mijn doctoraalscriptie opgeven, professor? Nee, meneer, mevrouw, als het vak u niet voldoende boeit dat u zelf een onderwerp kunt bedenken, waarom moet ik dat dan voor u doen? Ja maar professor, andere professoren… Ik weet precies wat u bedoelt, meneer, mevrouw, andere professoren geven hun studenten probleempjes op, welzeker, onbelangrijke probleempjes die ze zelf niet de moeite waard vinden, maar als die dan zijn opgelost, zijn ze niet te beroerd er zelf een artikel over te schrijven. De student die het vuile werk gedaan heeft, mag blij wezen als hij als co-auteur wordt vermeld. Maar zo ben ik niet, begrijpt u?”
