Bhagavad-gita As It Is Lectures
Guest (5): Are you God?
Prabhupāda: I am servant of God.
Guest (5): But you're preaching the holy name of God?
Prabhupāda: Yes, that is my business.
Guest (5): But then, by your own words, you are God.
Prabhupāda: But that does not mean I am God, but I am equal to God. Or at least you should see like that. That is explained. A guru... That is explained.

John Mize: When the soul was in the spiritual sky, it also had a mind and an intelligence like here?
Prabhupāda: Oh, yes. Yes. Unless he has got mind, how he misuses intelligence?
John Mize: But he misused that intelligence in his freedom, his independence.
Prabhupāda: Yes. Yes. Mind is there also. That is spiritual mind. Everything is spiritual. There is nothing material. Body spiritual, mind spiritual, intelligence spiritual, he is spiritual, the land spiritual, water spiritual—everything is spiritual. That is spiritual world. Here in the material world, except the spirit soul, everything is material.1977 Conversations and Morning Walks
Prabhupāda: Prāṇair arthair dhiyā vācā: "Life, money, intelligence, and words." So I am old man. My life has no value. You young men, utilize your...
Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: We may have life, but you have all intelligence, Śrīla Prabhupāda. So life without intelligence...
Prabhupāda: Everyone has got intelligence—more or less, that's all.
Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Well, you have complete, and we have practically none.
Prabhupāda: No...
Bhavānanda: We have no spiritual intelligence.
Prabhupāda: Complete knowledge-Kṛṣṇa. Aiśvaryasya samagrasya. Complete knowledge can be claimed by Kṛṣṇa, even not by Nārāyaṇa. Janmādy asya yataḥ [SB 1.1.1]. Everything is coming. Vedāham. What is that verse? Vedahaṁ sarvāṇi māṁ ca veda na kaścana? The kavirāja went to Pagal Baba? He has praised me very much.
Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Really? Hm. I think everyone praises you, Śrīla Prabhupāda.
Prabhupāda: That is very difficult.Correspondence
