TRANSLATION

By dragging behind Him with great force the wooden mortar tied to His belly, the boy Krsna uprooted the two trees. By the great strength of the Supreme Person, the two trees, with their trunks, leaves and branches, trembled severely and fell to the ground with a great crash.

PURPORT

This is the pastime of Krsna known as damodara-lila. Therefore another of Krsna's names is Damodara. As stated in the Hari-vamsa [2.7.36]:

sa ca tenaiva namna tu
krsno vai dama-bandhanat
gosthe damodara iti
gopibhih parigiyate
