Meaning
The commentary connects it with the bliss of the last verse. When the not-knowing that causes restlessness is destroyed by the strength of that bliss, desirelessness arises, which is the fullness of bliss itself. The order matters: desire is not crushed first so that peace may come. Fullness comes, and desire falls away because nothing is lacking. The moon does not work at being cool; coolness comes with it.
