That energy which covers the living entity which makes him forget is controlled by Krishna, but that same energy can be removed by Krishna, because it is always under His control. In other words, the living entity can overcome this influence of material energy, when Krishna removes that energy. Krishna can do it. He can remove all obstacles on the path, Krishna can take all suffering. Another name of Krishna is Mukunda, which means the giver of liberation. One simply must give up his envious position of the Lord.
