source: sant jagjit singh ji harkhowale tape/gyani thakur singh ji japji sahib katha which is translated in this section.

We are made of 27 elements, here is how.

Five elements: Air, water, Sky, Earth, Fire.

Five subtle elements: Shabad, Saparash, Ras, Roop, Ghand. Out of these five subtle elements, five vices takes birth- ego, lust, anger, greed, attachment.

Rest left are 17 elements which represents our subtle body- also callled shuksham/ling sirar:

When we die, we leave our asthol sirara(physical body) made of five elements- air, water, fire, ether, earth and we go with our sutble body. Elements in subtle body decides further consquences for this jiv.

It contains- five pranas, five gyan indrai(senses), five karam indra(senses), Man(Mind) and Buddh(Intellect)

Five Parnas: pran(breaths), apan(vaoio), Saman (energy exists everywhere outside and inside the body), Bhyaan (energy exists in navel chakra) and Udhayn (energy exist in throat chakra).

Five Gyan Senses: hearing, touch, sight, taste, smell.

Five Karam Indraie's: Feet, Hands, Tounge(speech), Anus and our Sexual organ in Subtle layer of our body.

Mann and Buddh- Our antish karan made of mat, chit, buddh, ahankar(all thoughts in consciousness/subconsciouness, desires/wishes at the time of death).

All this deep stuff is explained in Sri Japji Sahib and Atam Gyan Katha done by gyani thakur singh ji which was further lamely translated by me:
