#p#Vyāsa was the spiritual master of Sañjaya, and Sañjaya admits that it was by his mercy that he could understand the Supreme Personality of Godhead. This means that one has to understand Kṛṣṇa not directly but through the medium of the spiritual master. The spiritual master is the transparent medium, although it is true that the experience is direct. This is the mystery of the disciplic succession. When the spiritual master is bona fide, then one can hear #i#Bhagavad-gītā#/i# directly, as Arjuna heard it. There are many mystics and #i#yogīs#/i# all over the world, but Kṛṣṇa is the master of all #i#yoga#/i# systems. Kṛṣṇa's instruction is explicitly stated in #i#Bhagavad-gītā-#/i#surrender unto Krṣṇa. One who does so is the topmost #i#yogī#/i#. This is confirmed in the last verse of the Sixth Chapter. #i#Yoginām api sarveṣām#/i#.
#$p#Nārada is the direct disciple of Kṛṣṇa and the spiritual master of Vyāsa. Therefore Vyāsa is as bona fide as Arjuna because he comes in the disciplic succession, and Sañjaya is the direct disciple of Vyāsa. Therefore by the grace of Vyāsa, his senses were purified, and he could see and hear Kṛṣṇa directly. One who directly hears Kṛṣṇa can understand this confidential knowledge. If one does not come to the disciplic succession, he cannot hear Kṛṣṇa; therefore his knowledge is always imperfect, at least as far as understanding #i#Bhagavad-gītā#/i# is concerned.
#$p#In #i#Bhagavad-gītā#/i#, all the #i#yoga#/i# systems, #i#karma-yoga, jñāna-yoga#/i# and #i#bhakti-yoga#/i#, are explained. Kṛṣṇa is the master of all such mysticism. It is to be understood, however, that as Arjuna was fortunate enough to understand Kṛṣṇa directly, similarly, by the grace of Vyāsa, Sañjaya was also able to hear Kṛṣṇa directly. Actually there is no difference in hearing directly from Kṛṣṇa or hearing directly from Kṛṣṇa via a bona fide spiritual master like Vyāsa. The spiritual master is the representative of Vyāsadeva also. According to the Vedic system, on the birthday of the spiritual master, the disciples conduct the ceremony called #i#Vyāsa-pūjā#/i#.
