Kṛṣṇa knows that he will surrender, but when he will surrender... Then? That question must be there. That is explained in the Bhagavad-gītā: mām eva ye prapadyante māyām etāṁ taranti te (BG 7.14). He knows that "He'll be happy, provided he surrenders unto Me. Otherwise not." That He knows also. Is it all right? He knows that "As soon as he is surrendered unto Me he'll be free from the clutches of māyā," and He knows it also, "If he does not know do so, then he'll never be free from māyā." Both things He knows. Is it clear or not?.

Devotee (3): Śrīla Prabhupāda, does Kṛṣṇa know that He's sitting in everyone's heart?

Prabhupāda: Huh?

Devotee (3): Does He know when... Says, "The Supreme Lord sits in everyone's heart, O Arjuna, and He's directing the wandering of all living entities." Does He know when the living entities are going to surrender unto Him?

Prabhupāda: Hmm?

Puṣṭa Kṛṣṇa: The question is: if Kṛṣṇa is sitting in everyone's heart and He knows the wanderings of all living entities—He's directing the wanderings of all living entities—then does Kṛṣṇa know the time, or does He direct the living entity at some certain time to surrender, or is this the will of the living entity?

Prabhupāda: He knows. Yes, He knows. What is your...? Is there any doubt?

Devotee (3): No, there wasn't a doubt, but...

Prabhupāda: So what is the time He knows, do you know that? He knows that he will surrender, but when he will surrender... Then? That question must be there. That is explained in the Bhagavad-gītā: mām eva ye prapadyante māyām etāṁ taranti te ([[Vanisource:BG 7.14|BG 7.14]]). He knows that "He'll be happy, provided he surrenders unto Me. Otherwise not." That He knows also. Is it all right? He knows that "As soon as he is surrendered unto Me he'll be free from the clutches of māyā," and He knows it also, "If he does not know do so, then he'll never be free from māyā." Both things He knows. Is it clear or not?

Puṣṭa Kṛṣṇa: But it's the living entity's choice to surrender.

Prabhupāda: Yes. He knows everything.

Puṣṭa Kṛṣṇa: But then they give the argument, "If He knows, then how does the living entity have choice?"

Prabhupāda: Yes, that is given to him. He knows that "I have given him the independence," so you can use your choice. That He knows also. Yathecchasi tathā kuru ([[Vanisource:BG 18.63|BG 18.63]]). He knows.

Puṣṭa Kṛṣṇa: This is understanding things in proper light.

Prabhupāda: Yes.
