Meaning
The commentary: in the tree of awareness, through attachment to the sap of objects, the power of awareness, māyā, like the splendour of spring, spreads its own cluster of blossoms, called time and the rest, in the space that arose first. As the beauty of spring brings out high branches and lovely blossoms on trees watered by it, so māyā, the power of awareness, attached to the seen world, spreads time and the rest in the space that first arose in awareness.
