Educational Q&A

The verse emphasizes clear causality and the removal of confusion: extraordinary, world-shaking events have a definite cause, and understanding that cause dispels inner doubt.

Lomaśa explains that the widespread commotion occurred precisely at the moment the Earth was being lifted up; he urges the listeners to recognize this as the real reason for the disturbance and to abandon their uncertainty.
