Meaning
The commentary: this body of impressions standing in the sheath of the star-space is, looked at from the side of dealings, only intellect, mind and the rest, since it is their product; looked at from the side of the highest truth, it is knowledge, being and bliss. The same subtle body is two things depending on where one stands. The sentence continues.
