Sañjaya sprach: „Durch Vyasas Gnade habe ich dieses höchste Geheimnis — dieses tiefgründige Yoga — unmittelbar von Krishna, dem Herrn des Yoga selbst, vernommen, als er es persönlich aussprach.“ Der Vers betont, dass Sañjayas Bericht kein Hörensagen ist, sondern ein treues, göttlich verliehenes Zeugnis einer heiligen Lehre, die mitten in der moralischen Krise des Krieges verkündet wurde.

The verse highlights the authority and sanctity of the teaching: Sanjaya’s knowledge comes through Vyasa’s grace, enabling him to hear Krishna—the Lord of Yoga—speaking directly. Ethically, it stresses faithful transmission of truth and the idea that profound spiritual insight is received through divine favor and disciplined receptivity.
Sanjaya, narrating the Kurukshetra events to Dhritarashtra, explains how he is able to report Krishna’s confidential instruction: Vyasa has granted him the capacity (divine vision/privilege) to hear and recount Krishna’s words as they were spoken.
