Or citkalA, the consciousness encased in the mind because it is a small part of that consciousness which has no vehicle (ie Brahman). The Bh-gitA (XV.7) :"My part alone in the world are the eternal jivas" The PAdma Pr. while enumerating the [different] forms of Devi, says, "In the mind of all embodied souls, resides the energy called CitkalA" BhAskararAya's Commentary Translated into English by R.
