Paliwanag

Krishna begins describing his two natures. The first is his nature (prakṛti) divided eightfold: earth, water, fire, air and space, the five elements, together with mind, understanding (buddhi) and ahaṅkāra, the sense of I. This list draws on the language of Sankhya, which analyses the world into such principles. Including the mind and the ego among material elements is important: what we usually call our inner life is also part of the changing world. All of it, Krishna says, belongs to him.
