720704 - Conversation with Bob Cohen - New York

Bob Cohen: How does Kṛṣṇa control a nondevotee?

Prabhupāda: By māyā. By having . . . just like government controls everything. A criminal is controlled by the police department.

Bob Cohen: And how does Kṛṣṇa control a devotee?

Prabhupāda: Just like you control your beloved. Just like you have got a beloved child. So you control, for his benefit. If he's going to touch fire, you immediately say to him, "No, no, my dear child, don't touch it."

So a Kṛṣṇa conscious person, devotee, he is never misled, because Kṛṣṇa is always guiding him, whereas those who are not Kṛṣṇa conscious, they're in charge of māyā, and māyā will do the needful, as he acts.
