In plain words

A shape, a sound, a taste — and the verdicts come: this one is good, that one is flawed, and all the rest. Those verdicts are activities, and they happen in Buddhi — the intellect. Citi — consciousness — is what lights them up, and the objects along with them, in one and the same shining.

Close to the Sanskrit

With regard to form and the rest, the differentiating notions of merit, fault and so on, which reside in Buddhi — the intellect — are activities. Citi — consciousness — is held to be that which illumines those activities together with their objects.
