Shloka Translation
BG – Ch. 18- Ver. 76:

I rejoice again and time again as I think back on this amazing and magnificent conversation between Arjuna and the Supreme Lord Shree Krishna, O King.

Explanation

More exciting and rewarding than all the earthly pleasures combined, a spiritual encounter brings delight. Sanjaya is ecstatic and telling the blind Dhritarashtra about his encounter. He is experiencing divine bliss as he thinks back on the wonderful dialogue. This demonstrates both the divinity of the leela (pastimes) that Sanjay witnessed and the sublimity of the information contained in this scripture.
