चिति लीला / चैतन्य लीला
Since you mention that it is from a poem, I have suggested a short option that will help you in the translation. Since we are talking about consciousness, the word लीला goes well. We have to avoid literal translation in a poem.

समझदारी के खेल का प्यादा/होशियार चाल/चेतना के खेल में सिपाही/बुद्धि के खेल में मोहरा
It is a term which need for poetic translation so, have to concentrate on poetic value of target of words. It should have meaning that have own metaphor. It can't fill with prose words. So focus on poetics line specially which comes after this line are more valuable to regular rhythm of word.
Example sentence:
समझदारी के खेल का प्यादा, कर देता है कमाल, एक चाल की मात को, शह में देता ढ़ाल
