Could you explain the concept of Maya and its connection to bondage and liberation as described in the scripture?

📖 Chapter 50

As detailed in Chapter 50, Maya is the supreme, indescribable illusion that creates the entire universe of name and form. It is considered very difficult to overcome. The text explains that the very dwelling place of Maya is the pulse of imagination within us, and from this imagination arise the states of both bondage and liberation. Bondage comes from being entangled in this illusion. However, the path to liberation also emerges from this dynamic. Liberation is achieved through knowledge, as stated by the Vedic theorem "Only from knowledge comes liberation," which requires abandoning Maya by a firm resolve and destroying sinful karma.
