Bondage is the volitional construction (saṅkalpa) that is ‘accomplished’ (siddha) as the desire (āśā) for the eight powers (aiśvarya) beginning with aṇimā.

Verse Context

• Mahavakya: Reinforces that realization of Brahman (e.g., ‘अयमात्मा ब्रह्म’ / ayam ātmā brahma) is not identical with acquiring powers; siddhis belong to prakṛti/mind and are obstacles to abidance in the Self.
• Atharva
