When we are in a conditioned state (that is what we are) our knowledge is subjected to many deficiencies. These deficiencies are there because the conditioned soul has four defects:
a. Committing mistakes: Human being is prone to making mistakes. You must
have read or heard the famous saying, "To err is human".
b. Subject to illusion: We are all subject to illusion (maya). It means that we
perceive or see things which they are not. The meaning of maya is
"that which is not".
c. Imperfect senses: Our senses are imperfect. We cannot see beyond some
distance, we cannot hear everything and so on.
d. Cheating propensity: We have a tendency to cheat. It is difficult to accept
this for us but if you sincerely think about it you will agree that we tend to
cheat at least in minor ways - don't we?
These deficiencies make us unfit for having perfect knowledge. An imperfect being cannot create a perfect knowledge. Look at American or Indian constitutions - how many amendments have taken place since they were written?
In contrast Vedas are apaurusheya, which means they are not compilations of human knowledge - compiled by some humans. Vedic knowledge comes from the spiritual world
Veda => Knowledge
