Meaning
The cloud of v. 14 returns. In a deep raining cloud the torrent falls and the lightning flashes; in him, all peace and all consciousness, raining the nectar of bliss, the commentary says, the five inert elements and the living creations, in all their kinds, flash forth. The cloud is tranquil; the storm is in what it lets fall.
