Because he has got independence, he can misuse his independence, he can fall down. That's why one man is released from the prison house, that does not mean permanently he... He can come back again.</p>
<p>Śyāmasundara: There's no guarantee.</p>
<p>Atreya Ṛṣi: This concept of prediction, Prabhupāda. You just said it's the duty of the material (indistinct) because he's (indistinct) material. Because he's not sure and...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: (indistinct) by experience (indistinct). Just like  you can predict that four months after, there will be winter season. This prediction is like that. You have got experience that last year there was winter season, and again four months after there will be winter season. We call this prediction of experience, that's all.</p>
<p>Atreya Ṛṣi: In the spiritual world everything is permanent.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes.</p>
<p>Atreya Ṛṣi: There is no need for making predictions all the time.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No. Why there is? Prediction means when there is something wanting. There is no want at all.</p>
<p>Devotee: Once he's liberated, can he (indistinct)?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes.</p>
<p>Devotee: (indistinct) Kṛṣṇa conscious (indistinct)</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No. That is the general law. But if he likes, he can come back. Because otherwise, what is the meaning of independence? Just like one should become fit in the prison house, naturally he should not go again. But (indistinct) running again kicking, that's all.</p>
<p>Līlāvatī: So those eternally liberated souls in the spiritual sky will never come here because they choose not to. It's not that... (indistinct) they never choose to come here.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes, yes. They never choose. They are very experienced. (laughter)</p>
<p>Śyāmasundara: Bergson says that this quality of the soul can only be perceived by man's intuition, not by his senses, but by his intuition.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes. That is nice. Soul cannot be experienced by senses, but we can understand when there is a dead man, we can perceive that there was soul, which is now absent; therefore the body is dead. This is called perception.</p>
<p>Śyāmasundara: The dictionary defines intuition as "immediate apprehension by the mind without any reasoning."</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: That is experience. That is experience. Intuition means mature experience. Just like when as soon as there is mosquito, my hand immediately sees. You can say it is intuition, but it is experience, that when there is mosquito my hand must go there and try to kill him. But the experience is so mature that without consideration the hand goes.</p>
<p>Śyāmasundara: Like instinct?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: That is instinct, or intuition, or whatever you call it.</p>
<p>Devotee: Just like in the Bhagavad-gītā it explains that a yogi in this life means that in his last life (sic), but in this life it may look like he has intuition towards yoga, but actually...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Because he has got experience.</p>
<p>Śyāmasundara: Just like in mathematics they use the concept of intuition a lot, that...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: A big mathametician, suppose there is a big addition, sum, and one experienced mathematician, he can simply... Sometimes there is some difference. You know that? Generally we have some (indistinct). Is it not? But there are many experienced (indistinct) immediately (indistinct). That is experience.</p>
