The Lord is as Paramātmā. He is sitting in everyone's heart, and as you wanted to do, you forget.

Suppose a person, in his previous life, he wanted to be as powerful as a tiger. According to Muslim philosophy, they want strength like tiger. (indistinct) People think like that: "If I become so powerful as a tiger, then I can attack any less powerful animal and I feed on it." But nature is so cruel, the tiger, the most of the days he will starve. Although he has got strength, he cannot get daily a prey. No. This is not possible. When he is too hungry, Kṛṣṇa gives a chance to prey.

So He gives. "I wanted to be such and such," He gives me intelligence, He is so merciful. If you want to be as powerful as tiger, if you want to be a predominant businessman, He gives, ye yathā māṁ prapadyante ([[Vanisource:BG 4.11|BG 4.11]]). He gives opportunity, and He gives also chance to His devotee to go back to home, back to Godhead. He is giving chance to everyone. If you want to remain here, yānti bhūtejyā bhūtāni ([[Vanisource:BG 9.25|BG 9.25]]). If you want to remain in this material world and do hard work for sense gratification, that chance will be given to you. But if you want to go back to home, back to Godhead, that chance also will be given to you.

Now, it is my selection. When they are entangled in this material activities, they accuse Kṛṣṇa: "Why God has created somebody this, somebody that?" No. God has not created; we have created. We wanted to become like this, so God has given us. Kṛṣṇa has given us this chance, "All right, you become this." So it is my desire. He is called kalpataru—desire tree. Therefore we have to change our desire or purify our desire. That is Kṛṣṇa consciousness. That is Kṛṣṇa consciousness. The desire is mine.

So the Māyāvādī philosopher says that "You become desireless," vāsanā-śūnyaṁ. That is not possible. You cannot be desireless, because you are living entity. If your desire is finished, then you are also finished. How you can live? So this desire must be there, but you have to desire..., you have to purify your desire. That's all. That is Kṛṣṇa consciousness.
