Prabhupada Letters :: 1970.

"Lord Caitanya has warned. Don't mix with any Swami who has no knowledge of Krsna Consciousness. Their speaking is simply maya. Anyone who listens to their philosophy is doomed, all devotion dries up."

Prabhupada Letters :: 1971.

"So don't be disheartened at any circumstance. Depend on Krishna. After all this is the kingdom of maya. She is always peeping to take the opportunity of attacking us, but if we fix up our attention on the Lotus Feet of Krishna, maya cannot even touch us."

Prabhupada Letters :: 1969.

"In the kingdom of Maya you cannot stop the onslaught of her activities. The only protective measure is Krishna Consciousness. Otherwise there is no alternative."

Prabhupada Letters :: 1972.

"Krishna's plan becomes very easy for us when we follow Krishna's orders, otherwise, we are following Maya's plan. Following Krishna's orders means chanting daily 16 rounds, the four rules, rising early, like that."

Prabhupada Letters :: 1969.

"If in a foreign country there is fire, one has to take help even though you don't know the language. So there is a blazing fire of maya, and we have to inform the people, even if we must use broken language. That is no fault."

Prabhupada Letters :: 1969.

"So in the spiritual world, the same Maya works auspiciously, and in the material world the same Maya works inauspiciously. This auspiciousness and inauspiciousness is our own choice."

Prabhupada Letters :: 1968.

"We do not hate maya because maya is also a faithful agent of Krishna, but her task is very thankless. I am always praying to Krishna to protect you because I know purposefully I have sent you in a fiery condition of maya."
