Meaning
The commentary: the universe, the senses and the world of their action, and even the formed and gross dwellings of the presiding gods, are empty; for both are the wonder of awareness and not other than it. Another commentary: the world, being only the stir of mind, is space. Īhā is effort, the restless doing that is the world as we live it.
