Nectar Drops from Srila Prabhupada
"When we forget . . . Forgetfulness is our nature. We are not as perfect as God; therefore there are so many inefficiencies. So forgetfulness is also another material quality. So, material life means forgetting Kṛṣṇa. Māyā means when one has forgotten his relationship with Kṛṣṇa. That is called māyā. So Kṛṣṇa is very kind. When we forget too much . . . This material world is forgetfulness, but still, according to the Vedic system, Kṛṣṇa consciousness is maintained to some extent if you follow the Vedic principles. Then we revive our God consciousness, our relationship. That is explained by Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu when He was talking with Sārvabhauma Bhaṭṭācārya, that the Vedic principle is to revive or to remind our relationship with Kṛṣṇa. In the Bhagavad-gītā also Kṛṣṇa says, vedaiś ca sarvair aham eva vedyaḥ (BG 15.15): the real purpose of Vedic knowledge is to come to the understanding of Kṛṣṇa consciousness."
