Question
Is there any reference that Krishna was connected to Brahman while speaking Gita?
Answer
Apparently this comes from a statement from Anugita, as another member Lakhi has posted. Here's the explanation given by the authors of the Narayanastra blog.
para.n hi brahma kathitaM yogayuktena tanmayA |itihAsa.n tu vakShyAmi tasminnarthe purAtanam || 12||
They explain Yoga as "Dhyana" as in thought/will instead of being in meditation or connection with brahman.
yogaH sannahana upAya dhyAna san’gati yuktishu (amara kosha 3.3.22)
In this context, the meaning for this anugita reference is as below.
Indeed, the highest knowledge (paraM) of the vedas (brahma) was described by me (on the battlefield), by making use of my will which is unfettered (yoga yuktEna), ie, it was not because you performed any sAdhana to earn it. But now (on account of your rejection of my grace), I shall relate to you an ancient history based on that subject.
Wherein yogayuktena is explained as "by using my unimpeded divine will or sankalpa", not that he was in yogic connection to another entity.
