why humans suffering from such illusions although lord krsna descends on this earth timt to time

Hare Krishna

 

But I can say that Lord Krishna comes to Earth to fix what has gone horribly wrong, to restore religion in the people. For example when He came as Lord Caitanya to teach us how to properly worship and please Him, the way back home.

hare krsna ..,

illusion which is called as 'maya' is the external energy of the lord krsna.it covers the human kind as three fold miseries i,e birth ,death and disease in this material world.when we take out that illusion we can see the lord krsna face to face. for e,g sun is same as sun rays,but when clouds come,we will not experience the sun rays,but when the same cloud is taken away,we will experience the same sun rays,here sun is compared to lord krsna and sun rays are all living entities. lord in order to save all his living identities from his illusionary energy i,e maya.he appeared in this world as normal living identity and again propagate the sanatana dharma to all.hte poius will be saved and vice will be destroyed according to his will.so human kind should understand this and be serious in self realisation and reach god head otherwise they will be victims to ''maya'' ht illusion.no one can save with out personal interest of living identity,since we are all parts and parcels of supreme lord krsna....''acintya bheda bheda tattva'' refers to here,we are simultaneously one and different from the lord....we have that power to do ,so beware of maya and be in a krsnaian mood,krsna by his special mercy will save all his devotees who are right in speech ,thought and activity....hari bol......viswa cheda

Hare Krishna, Visu. In reply to your question...

 

Arjuna asked Krishna WHY if a man knows the Vedas right way of action STILL that man will fail to do the right thing.

 

And Krishna told Arjuna that "It is because of LUST that failure happens. Lust is the eternal enemy of the living entity."

 

Even the demigods have lusty desires, but despite of this they always remain obedient to the Lord (Krishna) while common people can't.

 

So that's why Srila Prabhupada recommends chanting at least 16 japa rounds everyday, so our mind cleanses up from lusty desires.

 

So we better be humble and understand that if lust is an eternal enemy it means that it never goes down to zero. Thus we must always be alert by chanting japa rounds always all the time every where.

 

Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna, Hare Hare/ Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare.

 

And where does lust come from? From attachment to sense gratification. We are always wanting to satisfy our senses.

 

Instead, we must learn or remember that Krishna must enjoy first and then we can get satisfaction later after Him. Prashadam for example.

 

Hare Krishna.
