bhumyam-on the ground; nipatitau-which had fallen; tatra-there; dadrsuh-all of them saw; yamala-arjunau-the twin arjuna trees; babhramuh-they became bewildered; tat-that; avijnaya-but they could not trace out; laksyam-although they could directly perceive that the trees had fallen; patana-karanam-the cause of their falling (how could it have happened all of a sudden?).

TRANSLATION

There they saw the fallen yamala-arjuna trees on the ground, but they were bewildered because even though they could directly perceive that the trees had fallen, they could not trace out the cause for their having done so.

PURPORT

Considering all the circumstances, had this been done by Krsna? He was standing on the spot, and His playmates described that this had been done by Him. Had Krsna actually done this, or were these merely stories? This was a cause of bewilderment.
