&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;In this material world the auspicious and inauspicious are simply mental concoctions because such things exist only due to association with the material world. This is called illusion, or ātma-māyā. We think ourselves created by material nature exactly as we think ourselves experiencing so many things in a dream. The spirit soul, however, is always transcendental. There is no question of becoming materially covered. This covering is simply something like a hallucination or a dream. In Bhagavad-gītā (2.62) it is also said, saṅgāt sañjāyate kāmaḥ. Simply by association we create artificial material necessities. Dhyāyato viṣayān puṁsaḥ saṅgas teṣūpajāyate. When we forget our real constitutional position and wish to enjoy the material resources, our material desires manifest, and we associate with varieties of material enjoyment. As soon as the concoctions of material enjoyment are there, because of our association we create a sort of lust or eagerness to enjoy them, and when that false enjoyment does not actually make us happy, we create another illusion, known as anger, and by the manifestation of anger, the illusion becomes stronger.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Our material existence is caused by our forgetfulness of Your personality, but fortunately the darkness of forgetfulness is immediately dissipated if one is privileged to hear about Your glories.

Kṛṣṇa is always prepared to accept you. He&amp;#039;s always prepared. But because He has given us independence, we misuse it and we fall under the clutches of māyā. That is our misfortune. We create this misfortune, and we can create our good fortune. &amp;quot;Man is the architect of his own fortune.&amp;quot; So if you become Kṛṣṇa conscious, it is to your good fortune. If you become māyā conscious, it is to your bad fortune. You are the creator.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Bhaktijana: When the souls that were never conditioned at all..., do they also have the independence?&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Prabhupāda: Yes, but they have not misused. They know that &amp;quot;I am meant for Kṛṣṇa&amp;#039;s service,&amp;quot; and they are happy in Kṛṣṇa&amp;#039;s service.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

All right, take credit. But you cannot make a mosquito with pilot. Can you?&amp;quot; &amp;quot;No.&amp;quot; &amp;quot;So why..., how can you defy the supreme creator?&amp;quot; We are taking it, there is supreme creator.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Svarūpa Dāmodara: That basic point they find it hard to understand.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Prabhupāda: No. Because they are blind. It is common sense, that you have created the 747. So somebody must have created this, a small insect. This is common sense. You cannot see Him: that is your bad fortune. But somebody has done it.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Svarūpa Dāmodara: Yes, that&amp;#039;s our logic.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Vṛṣākapi: To be able to be so fooled, that is the greatest wonder, how it&amp;#039;s so obvious that there&amp;#039;s a creator, but yet one can say there is no creator.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Prabhupāda: That is foolishness. That we are protesting, that &amp;quot;You rascal, you stop this nonsense talking.&amp;quot; There is son and there is mother; there must be father. This is conclusion. And &amp;quot;I do not see father. I do not see that.&amp;quot; But without father, how there can be son? This is intelligence.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
