GIST

" ... Oh King! By recalling again and again the divine and wonderful form of Hari (Krishna), I derive great amazement and ecstatic again and again. ... "

These words are said by Sanjaya to Dhritarashtra, who was narrating the events on the battlefield, which include Bhagavad Gita.

BLOGGER'S VIEWS

1. Hastinapuram (Capital and fort of Dhritarashtra) is in North Western UP. Kurukshetra, the battlefield is in Hariyana. Sanjaya viewing events of Kurukshetra from Hastinapura, with Krishna's gift, is a fantasy. Scripture preachers may term it as telepathy or declare that ancient Indians had TVs.

2. It might have even been a magic trick.

3. It might have been an insertion, by those who wanted to highlight Krishna as Supreme Godhead.
