Srila Prabhupada: Do We Have Independence?

#Destiny #MinuteIndependence #FreeWill #SrilaPrabhupada

Devotee: Srila Prabhupada, people have a choice within maya, isn't that a fact? They can choose what they want to do in the material world. People say that they can do this or that.

Srila Prabhupada: "What they can do? They cannot do anything. At any moment, you can be kicked out, 'Get out.' Therefore it is called conditioned life. There is no question of independence. That is foolishness.

“That is explained in the Bhagavad-gita [3.27] that they are not independent; everyone is  completely under the control of the laws of material nature, and still they are thinking independent. There is no independence. All foolishness! By false egotism, one thinks that 'I am independent.'" (Trans. Diary 5th July 1976)
Surrender to Krishna ki jai! Be an Instrument of Krishna’s will ki jai! Jaya Jaya Sri Radhe!
