athavā / yasmāt sukhaṃ devamanuṣyasaṃpattilakṣaṇam / pravṛddhaṃ vṛddhiṃ gatam / arthāt saṃbodhicittādeva / utplāvayati atiśayena saṃtarpayati / saukaryādadhikataraṃ yadbhavati tadutplāvanamucyate / yathā dadhnā vayamutplāvitā iti saukaryādadhikataraṃ dadhi bhūtamityarthaḥ //

Alternatively: because happiness, characterized by the fortunes of gods and humans, has become abundant, has increased—meaning, precisely from the complete awakening mind; it carries across, that is, excessively satisfies. That which is far more than abundant is called "carrying across" [i.e., inundating], as in the phrase: "We were inundated with curds," meaning the curds were far more than abundant.
