If your fear is activated, if your swadishthana is pressurized, you can't do anything fully, you can't do anything freely. When you understand everything is mangalattva, auspiciousness; the best thing, which can happen, is happening, suddenly you will see so much of intelligence is radiating through you. In front of your eyes, so many possibilities open. Intelligence means so many possibilities, that's what intelligence.
If you have pressure in the swadisthtana, you will have only 120-degree vision. Understand you will have only 120 degree vision. If your swadishthana is released, if you don't have the pressure of fear, you will have 360-degree vision, of you and your life.
In Swamiji's own words: "I have seen my gurukul (literally 'tradition of guru', refers to the ancient education system in which children were handed over to a guru at a very young age by parents for upbringing and education) kids. We never force them to memorize. Just, they are let to enjoy, jump around and the power, the energy and memory they radiate, Oh God! Some of my kids, they, actually they study in the ashram but they compete with the regular students, by writing exams with the regular students. And they come out with ninety-five, ninety, not a single kid comes out with less than ninety percent. I tell them it is just because their swadishthana (where Self is established; the groin or spleen energy center) is not activated, their swadishthana does not have pressure."
