WORD BY WORD
TRANSLATION
| Gradually the different areas of land gave up their muddy condition and the plants grew past their unripe stage, in the same way that sober sages give up egotism and possessiveness. These are based on things different from the real self, namely, the material body and its by-products.

PURPORT
| The word ādiṣu in this verse indicates the by-products of the body, such as children, home and wealth.
