<!-- BEGIN TRANSLATED TEXT -->
So this māyā cannot approach to a person who is always engaged in Kṛṣṇa consciousness. This is the version of Lord Caitanya, and with evidences. So if we want to be free from the clutches of māyā, then this is the only path—to become Kṛṣṇa conscious. There is no other way. Because here it is clearly stated, kṛṣṇa sūrya-sama. Just try to understand the argument.

Kṛṣṇa sūrya-sama: Kṛṣṇa is just like sun, māyā andhakāra: and the māyā is just like darkness. It is darkness. So just you cannot imagine where there is sunshine there can be darkness. Similarly, Kṛṣṇa is just like sun—how can you imagine that Kṛṣṇa and māyā can exist together? No. That is not possible. If there is māyā, there is no Kṛṣṇa. And if there is Kṛṣṇa, there is no māyā. This is the test.

If we are still in māyā, that means I'm out of Kṛṣṇa consciousness. And if I am actually in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, there is no existence of māyā. And what is the symptom of māyā? Mamāham: "my country," "my society," "my father," "my mother," "my wife," "my children," "my property," "my position," "my, my, my." There is no end of "my," although nothing belongs to him. This is called māyā.
