An eternal portion of Myself having become a living soul in the world of life, draws to (itself) the (five) senses with the mind for the sixth, abiding in Nature.

An eternal portion of myself, become a living being in the world of the living, draws to itself the senses, with the mind as the sixth, which rest in nature (prakṛti).

The verse turns from the goal to the traveller. The individual living being (jīva) is called an eternal portion of Krishna himself. It draws around it the five senses with the mind as the sixth, all of which belong to nature (prakṛti). Traditions differ on what portion means here: a real but distinct part, or the one reality appearing as if divided. Either way, the verse gives the soul a dignity rooted in the divine, while explaining how it becomes caught up in the senses.
