Meaning
The commentary asks how the whole world is at rest, and answers: in the space of awareness, the ground of all things, this world produced by elemental space, wind and the rest, appears. When even in elemental space, whose nature is unattached, its effects, wind and the rest, have no hold, how can being, non-being, "you-ness", "that-ness" and the like attach in the space of awareness? Never.
