In plain words
"The way tiny sparks fly out of a fire" — that is how the śruti says it. And to show what those words mean, he unfolded the whole host of living beings out of his own body.
Close to the Sanskrit
"Just as tiny sparks indeed fly forth from fire" — thus the śruti. In order to show the meaning of that śruti, he extended out of his own body the whole aggregate of living beings.
