kālaḥ - the eternal time; ayam - this; parama-aṇu - atom; ādiḥ - beginning from; dvi-parārdha - two superdurations of time; antaḥ - to the end; īśvaraḥ - controller; na - never; eva - certainly; īśitum - to control; prabhuḥ - capable; bhūmnaḥ - of the Supreme; īśvaraḥ - controller; dhāma-māninām - of those who are body conscious.

Eternal time is certainly the controller of different dimensions, from that of the atom up to the superdivisions of the duration of Brahmā’s life; but, nevertheless, it is controlled by the Supreme. Time can control only those who are body conscious, even up to the Satyaloka or the other higher planets of the universe.
