Mind is very flickering. Even five thousand years ago, when Arjuna was advised by Krsna that "You make your restless mind fixed up," he frankly said, "Krsna, it is not possible." Cancalam hi manah krsna pramathi balavad drdham: [Bg. 6.34] "I see my mind is always very much agitated, and to control the mind is exactly an attempt to stop the wind. So it is not possible." But actually his mind was fixed up in Krsna. So those who mind have been fixed up at the lotus feet of Krsna, they have conquered. Their mind is fixed up. That is wanted. Sa vai manah krsna-padaravindayor vacamsi vaikuntha-gunanuvarnane [SB 9.4.18]. These are the qualifications of Maharaja Ambarisa. He was very responsible emperor, but his mind was fixed up at the lotus feet of Krsna. That is wanted.
