Is Prabhupada in maya?

Virabhadra: You said in your lecture that everybody… I think that’s what
you said, that everybody in the material world is…in maya. But you can’t
be in maya.
Prabhupada: How do you think?
Virabhadra: You’re spiritual, so you can’t be in maya. So how does that
work?
Prabhupada: How do you think that I am not in maya?
Virabhadra: Because you’re a pure devotee. You see Krsna in everybody.
Prabhupada: (laughs) Yes. Then a pure devotee is not in maya. Do you agree
to that?
Virabhadra: Uh huh.
Prabhupada: So are you going to be a pure devotee?
Virabhadra: Me?
Prabhupada: Yes.
Virabhadra: I’m not a pure devotee.
Prabhupada: But you are going to be, trying to be.
Virabhadra: I try to be.
Prabhupada: That’s all right. That’s all right. That’s all right.
