Literal Translation
Standard Word-for-Word Meaning
In this mortal world, the soul—which is an eternal fragment of the Supreme, Primordial God—is constantly tormented. It is bound and dragged by the six material forces situated in Nature (Prakriti): the five physical senses and the mind (man), which is the subtle form of Kaal himself.
Hidden Mysteries & Secrets
Verse 15.7 reveals the metaphysical identity of the soul and unmasks the exact psychological trap that keeps it enslaved within the material universe. It answers the ultimate question: If the soul belongs to the Supreme God, why is it suffering down here in the branches of the cosmic tree?
I. The True Identity of the Soul
The verse explicitly states that the soul (Jiva) is a "part of the Primordial Supreme God."
II. Unmasking the Mind: The Second Form of Kaal
The deep dive commentary provides a profound revelation regarding the word "my mind" (munn).
III. The Six Tormentors (The Senses and Nature)
The text explains that the soul is "tortured through attraction by these six" forces situated in Prakriti (Material Nature).
IV. The Mechanics of Bondage
By understanding Verse 7, the seeker realizes that the soul's captivity is purely psychological and sensory. The soul itself is pure and divine, but it has become completely hijacked by the mind and senses. To break free, the seeker must use the Tatvgyan provided by the saint to disengage from the dictates of the mind (Kaal) and reconnect directly with the internal remembrance of the Supreme God.
