Goddess Maya (Goddess Māyā) is depicted in Hinduism and Vedic Mythology as the force that created and maintains the physical universe. Brahman is considered the supreme cosmic power of every physical object. The ego, the individual, "mine", and "yours", are considered illusory, belonging to Maya. It is through this illusion created by the consciousness that we can reach the truth, the highest and enlightened state.
Therefore, Maya can't be real if we consider Brahman as the absolute truth and the only reality, but she can't be unreal because she is the base of the physical universe. Hence, her existence involves her own understanding without denying her, as well as the understanding of nature itself. It is just like the hidden face of the Goddess in Wicca, we may never fully understand her, but we know she's true.
