In return for Indra’s benediction that their branches and twigs would grow back when trimmed, the trees accepted one fourth of the reactions for killing a brāhmaṇa. These reactions are visible in the flowing of sap from trees. [Therefore one is forbidden to drink this sap.]
Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura Gauḍīya
Translation
In return for Indra's benediction that their branches and twigs would grow back when trimmed, the trees accepted one fourth of the reactions for killing a brāhmaṇa. These reactions are visible in the flowing of sap from trees. The trees got the benediction that when the branches are cut, they would grow again. Because the sin is in the sap, it is forbidden to drink a tree’s sap.
