In plain words

One seed, and yet it comes out as many. In the same way the Self looks divided up by breath, by dream, by all the rest. Across the bodies of dream and the bodies of waking it is just so — the moon in water: countless reflections, one moon.

And just as one seed [appears] divided, so too [the Self appears divided] by prāṇa, dream, and the rest; and in that same way the Self [appears] in the bodies of dream and waking, like the moon in water.
