ພາຍໃນຫ້າຄືນ ກະລິລະ (ມວນຕົ້ນອ່ອນຄ້າຍຕົວອ່ອນ) ຈະກາຍເປັນຮູບຄ້າຍຟອງ. ແລ້ວພາຍໃນເຈັດຄືນ ຟອງນັ້ນຈະກາຍເປັນກ້ອນເນື້ອ (ມວນກ້າມເນື້ອ) ອີກຄັ້ງ.

Tattva Level: pasha
Role: creative
It highlights the body’s gradual, fragile formation to cultivate detachment (vairagya) and discernment, directing the seeker toward Pati (Shiva) rather than identifying with perishable embodiment (pāśa).
By emphasizing bodily impermanence, it supports turning to Saguna Shiva and the Linga as stable objects of devotion and grace, through which the bound soul (paśu) seeks release from bondage.
A practical takeaway is contemplation on impermanence alongside steady japa of the Panchākṣarī (“Om Namaḥ Śivāya”) and regular Shiva worship, using devotion to overcome bodily identification.
