Sanjaya said Thus I have heard this wonderful dialogue between Krishna and the high-souled Arjuna, which causes the hair to stand on end.

Sanjaya said: Thus I heard this wondrous dialogue between Vasudeva and the great-souled son of Pritha, which makes the hair stand on end.

The voice shifts back to Sanjaya, the narrator, speaking to the blind king Dhritarashtra. He says he has heard this wondrous conversation between Vasudeva, a name of Krishna, and the great-souled Arjuna, and that it makes his hair stand on end. The return to the frame story reminds the reader that the whole Gita is being reported far from the battlefield. Sanjaya's thrill conveys the wonder the dialogue is meant to awaken in every listener.
