<p>Prabhupāda: Yes.</p>
<p>Puṣṭa Kṛṣṇa: So let's say someone is in a very degraded condition of life, modes of ignorance, passion. Their mind is always disturbed. Is surrender to Kṛṣṇa.... Is it possible that it can be independent even of the mind?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Hm?</p>
<p>Puṣṭa Kṛṣṇa: In other words, let's say someone's mind is...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: You are independent of mind always. It is your mind. You are not mind.</p>
<p>Puṣṭa Kṛṣṇa: Yes.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Then you are independent of mind always.</p>
<p>Puṣṭa Kṛṣṇa: So even a person merged in the mode of ignorance can by some good fortune surrender to Kṛṣṇa.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No good fortune. God, Kṛṣṇa, says, "You do it"; you do it. Here immediately you become fortunate. There is no question of waiting for becoming fortunate. You become fortunate immediately. Suppose if I say, "Take this bag, 100,000 dollars." You can take it. Immediately you become rich man. Why don't you take it?</p>
